Abstract: This tape contains an excellent mix of programs and various
goodies from past symposia and new library releases.
Heading up this potpourri of good stuff are packages like an
electronic inter-office mail system, and a RSTS monitor
performance analysis program.  For the system managers,
there are some useful utility programs that will give the
maximum number of contiguous free clusters on a disk,
replace the please cusp for two-way communication only, a
fast disk copy, a fast tape copy, and much more.  Also
included are BP2 subroutines that will aid screen formatting
for VT52, VT100 compatible terminals, handle Send/Receive.
There is a run-time system 'TRURL', an NBS compiler, a BASIC
decompiler, EBCDIC ASCII conversion programs, IBM tape
handling programs, and a 3277 display emulator that will
allow a RSTS/E user to access CICS./VS, IMS/VS and TSO on an
IBM/370 from a Digital Equipment Corporation video terminal.
For those who would like to look at a device driver,
included is a CTS-11 software driver for a card
reader/punch.  There is some good reading material such as a
run-time system tutorial text set, a beginner's guide to
BASIC and more.  For anyone looking for some fun, I have
included pictures, humorous texts and games.
 
No guarantees are made as to the completeness, usability, or
quality of the programs on the tape.  The material has not
been checked or reviewed.
 
Documentation may or may not be on magnetic media.
