      [5,1] Readme.1st
      DECUS C "scratch" update ([5,*] directories) master document.

      This version is based on DECUS-C Kit from RSX SIG Tape Fall 85,
      including the updates from  Spring 86 and 87 for I/D Space, RMS
      and DECnet.
      
	This area  contains  a  full  update  to  DECUS  C system for 
      enhanced  functionality  and   compatibility  with  evolving  C 
      language  standards.    TOTALLY  UNSUPPORTED  (DON'T  call  the 
      authors) but it is believed  the complete kit is here.  LOTS of 
      tools and support for all OSs.    To  obtain  a  working C, you 
      should look over the KIT.RNO file and  others  (redundant  .DOC 
      files have been deleted to make room for  the  whole  kit)  and 
      included  command  files.   Basically you need to assemble  the 
      compiler  and  assembler  and  then if the .OLB files here  are 
      inadequate  you  need to compile the runtime system.  The tools 
      here are  well  worth using even in VMS native mode VAX11C, for 
      which build files  also  exist.  This version has some enhanced 
      compatibility with U**x C  in  its  syntax and the preprocessor 
      has  been  enhanced  to  relieve  many  restrictions  of  older 
      versions.  Some work on floating math has supposedly been done, 
      but its degree of cleanliness is not  known.  Since none of the 
      authors has time to spend weeks putting the code in supportable 
      order,  this  submission  is  TOTALLY  unsupported  but is made 
      available to allow you to at least have something to  try.   It 
      is believed to work but testing has been quite spotty.   If you 
      find something that is broken and you can fix it, please do  so 
      and submit it to a later SIG tape.

	Original directory names follow with UICs on tape:

  [5,100] Ready built libraries for RSX11M-Plus V4.0
  [5,1]	Top level directory [decusc]
  [5,2] BIN directory (.H files, libraries, and VAX .EXE's)
  [5,3] COMMAND directory. Documents, more .H files, some other stuff.
  [5,4] COMP directory. Sources for AS and CC, compiler and assembler.
        Also a readily built CC.TSK and AS.TSK for RSX11M-Plus V4.0.
  [5,5] CPP directory. C preprocessor.
  [5,6] CROSS directory. A variety of cross assemblers.
  [5,7] CTEXLIB directory. Part of P/OS version of DECUS C. Access to
		menus, etc.
  [5,10] DECNETRSX directory. RSX DECnet support.
  [5,11] FONT directory. Part of P/OS C kit, fonts for bitmapped display.
  [5,12] LEX directory. A lexical scanner generator for DECUS C
  [5,13] LIBC directory. C library items.
  [5,14] MISC directory. Odds and ends, some quite useful, but not part of
		the compiler proper. Includes a speller, file compress
		utility, and more.
  [5,15] OTSCOM directory. Common OTS routines for C runtime.
  [5,16] OTSIO directory. I/O areas for C OTS.
  [5,17] PML directory. Portable Math Library (in C)
  [5,20] POS directory. Executable DECUS C for P/OS with libraries.
  [5,21] POSCTEX directory. Later version (?) of CTEXLIB for POS C.
  [5,22] RMSPCLIB directory. RMS I/O support items. Used for POS flavor
		of DECUS C.
  [5,23] RSTSLB directory. RSTS (and RT) I/O support items for runtime.
  [5,24] RSXLIB directory. RSX I/O support items for runtime.
  [5,25] SPRSX directory. file I/O-free support for tiny "standalone" C
		programs. Also support's R. Denny's special ACP.
  [5,26] TOOLS directory. LOTS and LOTS of tools no programmer should be
		without. Also buildable with VAX11C. Tom Shinal has
		contributed a super enhanced GREP also.
  [5,27] USEFUL directory. Odds and ends that may be handy compiling C code
		from other systems.
  [5,30] VAXLIB directory. VMS I/O components for runtime.
  [5,31] COMP directory subset. Pre-built executables for RSX11M.
  [5,32] ZZDECUSC directory. H files needed (in a directory named ZZDECUSC)
		for P/OS DECUS C.

The [333,*] UIC's contain two set of useful DECnet tasks. 

	[333,102] - Contains a DECnet remote file access package.
			Uses a special remote DECnet object, not
			FAL.

	[333,103] - REX - a remote execution package. Allows
			submitting command on a remote node
			without losing the use of the local node.
