          A brief overview of the directories:

     1.  PROCNAME

              UNDER VMS IF TWO PEOPLE ARE LOGGED IN USING THE SAME USERNAME
         THE FIRST ONE WILL HAVE THE TRUE 'USERNAME' (FOR THE PROCESS NAME)
         AND THE SECOND ONLY THE TERMINAL NUMBER (E.G.  TTA5:).

              I WANTED A WAY TO TEST IN 'SYLOGIN.COM'  TO  ALLOW  ONLY  ONE
         'USERNAME'  FROM  A  COUPLE OF TERMINALS.  BUT I HAD TO BE ABLE TO
         FIND OUT THE REAL USERNAME.

              THIS PROGRAM (WHEN RUN FROM THE SITE DEPENDENT LOGIN  COMMAND
         FILE  WILL  CHANGE  THE  'PROCESS  NAME' FROM WHATEVER IT IS TO BE
         'TT USERNAME' E.G.   A5MYNAME  BATCH  BECOMES  'BATCHJOB USERNAME'
         E.Q.  126YOURNAME.

              SO NOW YOU WILL BE ABLE TO DO A '$ SHOW SYSTEM' AND  SEE  THE
         CORRECT TERMINAL NUMBER AND USERNAME FOR EACH PROCESS.

              THIS DOES NOT AFFECT SYSTEM RESOURCE ACCOUNTING  IN  ANY  WAY
         (THAT  I  KNOW  OF).  THE CORRECT (UNCHANGED) USERNAME GOES IN THE
         SAME WAY IT ALWAYS DID.

              ONE THING 'PROCNAME' IS GOOD FOR IS  THE  TESTING  OF  DIALUP
         LINES TO ALLOW (OR DISALLOW) CERTAIN USERNAMES.

     2.  ABORT

              THIS PROGRAM, WHEN PLACED IN  THE  OPERATOR  ACCOUNT,  ALLOWS
         ANYONE  (YOUR  OPERATOR)  TO BE ABLE TO DO A 'STOP/ID=pid' WITHOUT
         GIVING THE OPERATOR ACCOUNT  SYSTEM  'WORLD'  PRIVILEGE.   HOW  IT
         WORKS  IS THAT YOU INSTALL 'ABORT' WITH 'WORLD' PRIVILEGE AND THEN
         YOU CAN REMOVE IT FROM THE OPERATOR ACCOUNT.  I ALSO PUT A $ ABORT
         :== "RUN ABORT" IN THE '[OPERATOR]LOGIN.COM' FILE.
