	This is the user's guide for the mapper program.  This guide gives
step-by-step instructions and useful hints for operating Mapper.  The format is
to print, in the order in which they might appear, the system prompts to the
user and then list what the responses might mean.

	To start an installed mapper program from monitor mode, the user would
simply type:

                              RUN  MAPPER

	The system prompts will appear in all capital letters, while comments
will be in lower case:

 1.  INPUT FILE?

	this requests the name of the input file to be used by mapper.  simply
	type out the name of the file in the form:  dev:filename.ext.  the
	syntax is checked by the system as it tries to open a file.  Therefore,
	a system error will occur if a bad specification is made.

 2.  INPUT RECORD LENGTH?

	this requests the number of characters all records in the input file
	are expected to have. any record size from 1 to 512 will be accepted
	by mapper.

 3.  OUTPUT FILE?

	this requests the name of the output file to be created by mapper.
	simply type out the name of the file in the form:  dev:filename.ext.
	
 4.  OUTPUT FIELDS?

	this requests the user to enter the record fields to be extracted from
	the input file by mapper. these fields should be entered in the
	following format:

	s,l:s,l:s,l:...      (where s=start column in the input file,l=length)
