This directory contains the session nodes (KNOWN_FILES.NOTES) and the sample program for the session "Known Files: The Internals of INSTALL" given at the Fall 1990 DECUS Symposium. The sample program will make a copy of the Known File database and then print its contents. To rebuild the executable from the source: $ cc read_kfdb $ link read_kfdb,sys$system:sys.stb/sel,sys$input/opt sys$share:vaxcrtl.exe/share The executable contained in this directory was build under VMS 5.4. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact me. David Schwab DEMAX Software 999 Baker Way, Suite 500 San Mateo, CA 94404 (415) 358-3809
