Abstract: There are five major categories of items included in this
package.
 
.  Routines to access and manipulate the file structure.
.  Some SST handlers.
.  A software fix for a DL device hardware bug.
.  An undeletion utility.
.  A miscellaneous grab bag.
 
Some of the programs in the grab bag are as follows:
 
WIND.FTN	This program takes input values for temperature
		and wind speed and returns the wind-chill
                temperature.
SEARCH.FTN	The user enters in a wildcard file specification,
       		with optional switches that prompt him for a
		string to locate and the number of lines from the
		file to print on the terminal, and the program then
		displays the matching files on the terminal (up to
		99 lines).
COMPS.FTN	This program is very useful for verifying that the
		executable version of a file is identical to the
		master for software quality assurance purposes.
MACLIB.ULB 	This is a collection of assorted MACRO routines that
		all are callable from FORTRAN. They perform various
		functions that are either impossible from FORTRAN,
		such as performing bit reversals or push/popping items
		onto the stack, or are easier and faster in MACRO,
		such as converting lower case to upper case or changing
		an odd into an even integer.
