Each subdirectory has one or more .DOC files describing the
contents.

[.CALCULATE]
CALCULATE is a program which will do number base
conversions and calculations for decimal, hexadecimal,
octal and character data in integer or floating point modes.

[.COPYUPD]
Special Utility Command Files for Copying VMS Update Media
These command files copy VMS update savesets between normally
incompatible media, such as floppy to tape, or console media to console
media.  A major advantage of using them is that when the updates are
copied from floppy to tape, the resulting update is much faster, both
because all floppies of the saveset are now on one tape, and because
restoring the saveset from tape is vastly faster than restoring thru the
console subsystem. 

[.EDTINI]
EDT Initializer file and command files to utilize it directly and
in Mail with VT100's, VT200's, GIGI's and Heath H88 terminals.

[.HELPND]
UND HEP Help Command File
HELPND provides access to document files not available in standard
VMS help format, and to searches thru command files and other list
type files, as well as executing an error translation program.

[.SETMINE]
SETMINE is a command file to set file ownership to that of parent.
The reason for this is to enable several users in a group to use a
common group directory and put files into it and to remove them from
personal ownership.  Thus the individual does not need as large a 
quota, and files properly belonging to the group will in fact belong
to the group.  

[.TAPES]
Foreign Tape Handling Programs and Command Files
This subdirectory contains a number of programs and command files
that manipulate foreign tapes, in particular IBM tapes, on a VAX.
The programs are all written in Fortran, using the VMS Run Time Library.
TAPECNT is a diagnostic and documentation tool for tapes.  It will
read any tape and give the structure of the tape, along with any
tape labels it finds.  It calculates the amount of tape used from
the density and the record sizes and counts that it finds.  It
handles EBCDIC to ASCII conversions, when requested.

[.USERS]
USERS.COM  An Expanded Show Users
USERS.COM is a utility routine to show the users on a VMS system 
in greater detail.  It is primarily useful to system managers and
privileged users, or for general use on a system with most users
in a single group.  For a heterogeneous user population, little
is gained over the standard VMS SHOW USERS command.
