GHCM

This program is a fairly flexible system for producing hardcopy from a VT240
or VT125 ReGIS graphics terminal.  It "reads back" the sixelized form of
the graphic in a form suitable for printing on an LN03 or LA50 printer (note
that LA100s, and LA200s don't have the correct aspect ratio).

LTMONITOR

This is yet-another-idle-terminal-killer, or yaitk.  It looks for any
interactive process that has no subprocesses and kills if it has not
done anything for an hour or so.  It is called "LTMONITOR" because
it is used mainly for terminal server terminals, which are LT devices.

It isn't cheap to run, chalking up 10 minutes per day of CPU, but, so what.
MDALIB

This is a small collection of routines that adds the usual functions to
Digitals runtime library.  Most are now obsolete, but the byte swap
and RMS stuff (IOFAST) is still OK.


BSWAP      swaps bytes
COPYARRAY  obsolete
FILLC      obsolete
IOFAST     RMS access
JOBSUBMIT  submit a batch job
MDALIB.*   libraries, Pascal environments, etc
MDATEST    test programs
NARGS      number of arguments
PRINT      small file printing (queueing)
PRINTFF    full function file printing (queueing)
PROCTYPE   process type (interactive, network, batch, ??)
ZEROARRAY  obsolete

VAX/VMS Standardized Response Measuring System

This set of DCL procedures, Datatrieve domains and commands, and a Fortran
program comprises a "response time" measuring and graphing system.

MDALIB.OLB

This is a bunch of Macro stuff that fills in the holes of Digital's Run-time
Library.  Some of these routines are already obsolete.  The LOC_IOFAST$xxx is 
just some simple RMS calls (See the Pageswapper, September 1984).
