VAX KMSKIT V3.7/V4.0

	Included in this submission are the subdirectories.

[KMSKIT.SYSMGR]  - Useful command procedures for controling the system
                   and making life generally easier for all.  Many updates 
                   and changes since last release.  Powerfail monitor.
                   Automatic login notification for operators if the system
		   is having hardware problems.  Easy way to switch between
		   configurations from one boot to the next.  Incremental
		   restore procedure than works with the incremental backup
		   procedure.  A very powerful improved set of procedures
		   for establishing an operator account.  Procedure for 
		   implementing dual passwords for dial-in users. Procedure
		   for setting up a terminal as the right type at login
		   (even if VMS does not yet support it).  Privileged command
		   procedure catcher.  Procedures for using a using a port 
		   multiplexer to stretch you existing ports.

[KMSKIT.SYSUTL]  - Useful things.
                   a) VAX CALC update which has online help.  
		   b) Improved auto-logoff facility, 
		   c) SETMODEM to enable DMF lines 0 and 1 to be used 
		      with 4 wire cables.  
		   d) An improved (albeit slightly considering the work
		      which originally went into it) version of AVATU.
		   e) TEKGRAPH, A program which creates graphs on VT125's,4014's
		      and VT24x terminals.  Bug fixed, features added.
		   f) A modified version of TVG which knows about our 
		      4014 terminals (/DEV=FT1) and our VT240 terminals.  
		      This is probably not R. Grandle's current version, 
		      but it is used by VPW.
		   g) Power fail catcher

[KMSKIT.TVG]     - TVG as adapted for VT240s.  Not, however, the "official"
                   version.  

[KMSKIT.VAXSUBS] - Migrating from RSX to VAX the easy way. Bugfixes to last
		   release.  Not many, but some.  New support for SEND and
		   RECEIVE directives.  Bug fixes.
		   Please, if you are interested in this area and have 
		   written any mapping subroutines, please send them on to 
		   me.  I would like to establish a collection of them for 
		   DECUS.

[KMSKIT.VPW]     - V4.0 of the VAX Professional Workstation.  
		   Not quite ALL-IN-ONE,  but close, very close, 
		   (and getting closer) and Oh, so much cheaper !!
		   including WINDOWS with typeahead!  VPW V4.0 is
		   MUCH FASTER, very modular, uses logical names so easy
		   to reconfigure.  
		   Included with this release is 
		   a) GraphMaster, an interactive procedure for
                      graphics (graphs, slides, etc).  Graphs may
		      be generated either with DECgraph, TEKgraph,
		      or DTR (on VT125's or VT24x's).  Support for
		      curvfitting, and some graphics data file transformations.
		   b) Support for VT240 graphics.
		   c) A new version of NOTEBOOK which which can edit
		      (like a spread sheet calculator) our type 1
		      X-Y graphics data files (used by TEKgraph).
		      More flexible command line interface,  handling
		      of VT240 terminals, etc.
		   d) Procedures support VT2xx terminals.
		   e) Procedures support FULL editing windows (with a 
		      window banner that stays and stays and stays.....)
		      and which supports typeahead.
		   f) A new version of EDT (VPWEDIT)which supports WINDOWS
		      (again with a full editing screen and a banner
		      that stays....) and a clipboard and INSTANT system
		      level help from within the editing session.  
		      Note, this requires you to have EDT V3.0 (which by
		      the time you get this tape you should have).  
		   g) A version of EDT to use for browsing files.
		   h) A "rubber band" menu dispatcher (the VAX Toolbox)
		   I) A VAX Problem Reporter (an automated internal
		      SPR system).
		   j) VAX DTC (Date Book Calendar).  Replaces DATEBOOK.
		      You have to see it to believe it.  All RSX bugs fixed.
		      Context sensitive help!, Display wierdness's fixed.
		      Print and Purge commands.  Integrated with VPW.
		   k) Privileged command procedure dispatcher.
		      

Please, note that the procedures, programs etc, may assume site dependent
information not applicable to all sites.  Command procedures may have to
be modified to work to reflect the correct location of files.  Some
command procedures assume the existance of certain files or executable
images (generally, but not always, available from DECUS tapes).  I 
appologize for not having something which goes in as easy as a VMS Update kit.

As always, complaints, suggestions, or praise (preferably the latter)
may be directed to:
