This directory contains a combination of two older decus programs,
namely lc (directory lister) and grep (pattern matcher). 

They  were  originally  with  utilities  that came with the FAMOUS
Conroy C compiler. 

This program predates the C compiler from  the  fall  1979  tapes,
thus  the  assembler  module  gethdr.s may need some work. It does
have a bug which has to do  with  how  DEC  puts  directory  files
together.  Sometimes  the  next  free byte indicator appears to be
wrong and one garbage item is listed. 

ls (list directory): Normally, files are  listed  in  alphabetical
order, in 4 columns. Its options are: 

    -1      Print in 1 column format
    -d      Don't sort.
    -l      Print in long format
    -n      Include version numbers
    -p      Include protection in -l format
    -t      Include totals in -l format
    -v      negagated class selection

usage: ls [-1dlnptv] [pattern] [uic] [>file] 

pattern   is   a  UED  pattern  (regular  expression)  with  these
exceptions: 

	? is the ANY character (instead of . )
	# is equivalent to [0123456789] (matches numbers)
	@ is equivalent to [abc...xyz]  (matches alphas)

The ^  []  $  [^ ]   *  special characters all work.

note: patterns may not begin with "[" (thinks its the  uic).  Use:
ls ?*[...] or ls ^[...] etc. 

Output may be redirected to a file using the >file option.
