_INQUIRE is an enhanced clone of the DCL INQUIRE verb.  It was originally
written to support YADMS (yet-another-DCL-menu-system).  This version has
a few more features than the earlier one kicking around on a DECUS tape,
notably the ability to specify the terminator set and a max response size
qualifier (/BUFLEN).  It now maps of the dreaded Invalid-Escape-Sequence
terminal driver error to success (may I live so long as to never see that
error again), and the ability to specify the prompt device (/DEVICE=...).

There is a callable interface (both CLD and non-CLD) for simple access to
terminal driver functionality and documentation in both text and on-line
help format.  The Fortran source is supplied, as is the object library
for those without the compiler.  I have not provided installation notes,
but it is quite simple;  just install the provided INQUIRE_COM.CLD
file into your system (or private) command table after editting it to
set the image name appropriately.  The other .CLD file is for the
callable interface.
