DECUS Finger update

This is my version of DECUS Finger, the original version of which is
available at ftp.spc.edu in the finger directory. My version fixes a number
of problems experienced in VMS versions 6.1 and above. It runs under UCX
and Multinet (using UCX emulation) on both VAX and Alpha. I don't use the
TCP/IP finger server, so I can't vouch for it.

Some changes made:

   * Add recognition of DECwindows Motif (FTAn:) pseudoterminals
   * Add recognition of Multinet Telnet terminals (NTYn:)
   * Rewrite FINGER link command for Alpha to fix sharable EXE problem
   * Change Hardware model display to reduce number of characters used
   * Add ``.PLAN'' as another option for FINGER Plan file
   * Add ability to finger unix case sensitive usernames using quotes
   * Handle new DECnet errors introduced in OpenVMS VAX V6.1 and OpenVMS
     Alpha V6.2 resulting from the addition of Full-name DECnet support
   * Write FORTRAN version of UCXSUBS.MAR for Alpha for TCP/IP support,
     this is used with VAX version also since UCX V4.0 and above has
     problems with UCXSUBS.MAR
   * Alpha version of FINGER has Login time as one of the default displayed
     items since idle time is not available

Notes: Finger is customizable. Please read the instructions (FINGER.DOC) on
where to find the places in the code to change the site specific settings.
The source code below is customized for my site. One such change is the
reduction of max users from 7500 to 500 in FINGERCOM.FOR. If your site has
many more users, you may want to restore this to the original value. Also
to build a TCP/IP compatible version of FINGER use UCXTEST.COM instead of
BUILD_FINGER.COM.

Source code:

VAX version of Finger
Alpha modifications for Finger

If you have an Alpha, you need to download both files. On my system, I have
the Alpha code in one directory and the VAX code in another. On VAX
systems, this directory is SYS$LOCAL:[FINGER]. On the Alpha I use
SYS$LOCAL: as search list that points first to the Alpha directory, and
then the VAX one. Thus, the command files that build the Alpha version find
the correct files.
