	Program:	SCRIPT
	Date:		Spring 1987

     Description:

	Script is a menu-driven, command-language-level user interface.
     Simply put, Script reads it own DCL-like control language files and
     creates menus, from these and executes whatever commands are associated
     with each chosen menu selection.  Its target terminal device is any ANSI
     supporting CRT, but it will deal with hardcopy devices with some grace.

         This is Script's second submission.  There has been several
     important enhancements, the main ones involve the use of mailboxes.
     Mailboxes solve several major problems, by allowing script to communicate
     to sub-processes or as a sub-process to the parent process.   This skips
     the problems of speed and context that came from the use of the SPAWN
     directive.  See AAAREADME.DOC for a description of the directory contents.
