This is the Spring 1989 DECUS VAX SIG Tape submission from Alan L. Zirkle Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren, Virginia 22448 (703) 663-8023 The submission includes: -- NSWC RUNOFF, which is based on, and derived from, Bonner Lab Runoff (VAX version) from the VAX86C VAX SIG Tape. NSWC RUNOFF has been extensively updated since it was previously submitted in Spring 1988. The files for this are in subdirectory [.RNO]. See [.RNO]000README.1ST. NSWC RUNOFF (RNO) is an alternative to VMS RUNOFF (DSR). It has many capabilities not in DSR, including the ability to use macros and the means of easily using the features of whatever output devices are available (i.e. RNO understands escape sequences and uses them in a structured manner). -- MODIFY, yet another version of a program which goes through a wildcard list of files and changes one string to another. This one has more features than any I have seen; see the MODIFY.HLP file for a description of the features. -- REFORMAT, a utility to copy a file, changing its attributes in various ways. See the REFORMAT.HLP file to see what changes REFORMAT can make to a file. MODIFY and REFORMAT are FORTRAN programs. Each program has a .CLD file in which the "IMAGE" line must be edited with the path to the .EXE file. The .EXEs on this tape were compiled and linked under VMS 5.1. If you want to build MODIFY or REFORMAT from sources, you will need to link them with the library NSWC1LIB.OLB, which you must obtain from The Fall 1987 VAX SIG tape, in directory [VAX87C.NSWC.NSWC1LIB]. The sources to NSWC1LIB are also on that tape. I apologize for the inconvenience of this, but this will help keep this tape smaller. If you have any prob- lems, give me a call.
