Abstract:  NAMELIST is a set of Fortran-callable subroutines
to  perform  formatted I/O within the calling program and is
an augmentation of the namelist submitted  by  Derek  Rowell
and Douglass Wilson of MIT.  Namelist allows selective input
and output of values for variables defined  in  the  calling
program.   Other  features  include  variable initialization
with defaults, reading from files, access to  DCL  commands,
on-line help, and options that can be personalized.

The tape contains an AAAREADME file, all source code, a help
file,  a  document,  the  object  and  object library, and a
command procedure for updates.

Contents:  The files on the tape are:

     AAAREADME.RNO  - the runoff input file for AAAREADME.TXT
     AAAREADME.TXT  - the synopsis of namelist files
     NML.FOR        - the Fortran code
     NML.DOC        - the current namelist document
     NMLORIG.DOC    - the original DECUS document
     NMLHLP.RNO     - the runoff input file for NML.HLP
     NMLDOC.JOU*    - the EDT script to convert NMLHLP.RNO to NMLDOC.RNO
     NMLDOC0.RNO*   - the runoff input for the NML.DOC introduction
     NMLNEWDOC.COM* - the DCL script to make NML.DOC from NMLDOC.RNO
     NML.HLP        - the help library input file
     NML.HLB        - the namelist help library, NML$HELP
     NML.OBJ        - the object code
     NML.OLB        - the namelist object library, NML$LIB
     NML.MAR        - the macro code
