Enhancements to some MCR commands.
I put these on my system (M3.2) along with the KMS-FUSION stuff.
Jim Downward has these changes and they might possibly be included in his
next release.
These, however, are totally independent of his stuff.

ATLOV--Changes to the "ACT" command so that it also tells you the state
of the task, without all the garbage that the full one gives.
Finally ACT gives you useful info (such as if your task is
out or not).
BYE -- Mod's to Downward's BYE. This does a spawn & wait to UPD (to avoid
a race condition with setting the logoff bit). It also spawns
"@LB:[1,5]SETTERM.CMD" to reset the terminal characteristics
when the user logs off.
HELLO --An enhancement to HELP, to give you a list of the available
help-file keywords at a particular qualification level. This is
only useful if you have HELP files, and Jim's are the only ones
that I know of. (Unless and until DEC puts them in the next release.
I know they have them, because our M+ system had over 6000!!!!!!
blocks of HELP files. Although in a lot of cases, Jim's are better.
DEC seems not to have heard of lower-case letters.)
MCRDIS - A fix to allow a time scheduled task (which by definition has
CO: as it's TI: device) to spawn tasks via MCR. My RECUR task
(supplied on another UIC) uses this.
