WIRAP


                 Wire-Wrap Documentation Program



     This program is used to simplify and speed up hand wiring  of
circuit cards using Wire-Wrap technology.  Features of the program
include electrical checking of wire connections, automatic genera-
tion of the power and ground connection chains, wire length minim-
ization, and cross-reference listing generation.

     The program is written  completely  in  FORTRAN  IV-PLUS  and
should  run  on any system supporting that compiler.  The indirect
command file which generates the  program  uses  features  of  the
RSX11-M V3.1 indirect command file processor.

                        Installation Notes

     A complete build (assembly with  listings,  task  build  with
map,  and  users  manual generation) requires about 4150 blocks of
disk storage.

     The task runs overlayed in 26KW.

     The build procedure is

                MCR>set /uic=[317,300]
                MCR>@wirgen

The WIRGEN.CMD file will perform all needed procedures,  including
generation  of  the task build command file and overlay descriptor
file on the fly.

     During the task build,  diagnostic  messages  concerning  the
PSECT "WORK" will be generated.  These messages may be ignored.

     After building the task, it may be tested by using  the  test
file EXAMPLE.WIR.  The command dialog is

        MCR>ins wirap
        MCR>wir

                *** WIRAP  V4.3

        WIR>ENTER LISTING FILE SPEC: example
        WIR>ENTER INPUT FILE SPEC: example

                *** WIRAP  V4.3

        WIR>ENTER LISTING FILE SPEC: ^Z
        MCR>

No errors should occur.  The output file will be EXAMPLE.LST.
