 	[VAX000]SUBMIT.TXT     M SUGGESTIONS REGARDING THE SUBMISSION OF SOFTWARE FOR THE VAX SYSTEMS SIG TAPE   N These suggestions are not to be considered as requirements for the acceptance J of software for the tape.  They are intended to help make the structure of( the submissions somewhat more consitent.  J 1.  If your submission is large or naturally fits into several directories7 submit it as a directory tree using the BACKUP command.   J 3.  There should be one AAAREADME.TXT with each submission.  The followingE information should be included for each program or group of programs:   ; 	a.  A brief description of the program or group of related  	programs.    < 	b.  The names of previous submissions which this submission
 	replaces.  = 	c.  The name of the person primarily responsible for putting  	the submission together.   ? 	If you use RUNOFF to generate this file don't hide the source  I under another name, use AAAREADME.RNO.  TEMPLATE.RNO contains the primary 5 runoff commands needed to generate this type of file.   I 4.  There should be sufficient documentation for each program or group of H programs.  The file containing or pointing to this documentation should I have a .DOC extension.  If your documentation is somewhere else, say, as  J comments in the program, a .DOC file is still useful to tell people where K to find the it.  This is good place to put the name of the author, whether  J or not he is interested in bug/improvement reports, and, if he is willing . to take telephone inquiries, his phone number.  > 5.  If the above paragraphs are complied with then the commandD PRINT/HEADER [...]AAAREADME.TXT will give a very nice summary of theE tape and DIR [...]*.DOC will give the user a start toward finding the  documentation.    # 6.  Making the tape for submission.   9 	a.  If you are submitting a single directory use either  9 	COPY or BACKUP, for multiple directories use BACKUP.  If ? 	you must use FLX or some other format, please CLEARLY indicate < 	the format on the tape label and, if possible, the commands' 	necessary to copy the tape on a VAX.     8 	b.  Use a density of 1600 bpi and be aware that 1600 is7 	not always the default in spite of what the DCL User's  	Guide says.  ; 	c.  Take or send the tape to the next symposia or send it,  	with a signed release form to:   
