 NFT HELP is available for the following subjects:
     APPEND (/AP) ............. File append commands

1 APPEND
  To append to an existing file, the command format is:
	NFT>appendfilespec=infilespec1[,...,infilespecN]/AP
1 BRIEF
  A brief directory listing can be obtained by typing:
	>NFT [outfile=]filespec1[,...,filespecN]/BR
  Where the output file specifier is optional, and defaults to "TI:"
  A brief directory only includes a list of file nanes. The format 
  of the /BR display is:

   Directory ELROND::DB0:[7,7]
   3-APR-79 13:21:24

   X.LST;3                 
   X.MAC;3                 
   X.OBJ;4                 
   X.TSK;2                 

1 DELETE
  To delete a file, or a several files, the  command format is:
    NFT>filespec1[,filespec2,...,filespecN]/DE
1 DIRECTORY
  Three forms of directory list are supported:
	/BR -- Brief. This lists the file names only.
	/LI -- Default. This lists the names, size, creation date, and
	       indicates if the file is contiguous.
	/FU -- Full. This list the names, size, creation date, contiguous
	       indicator, file protection, and last modified date.
  For information on the display formats type "HELP /LI", "HELP /BR" or
  "HELP /FU"
1 EXECUTE
  To execute a file, or a several files which are located on a remote 
  node, the command format is:
    NFT>filespec1[,filespec2,...,filespecN]/EX
1 FULL
  A full directory listing can be obtained by typing:
	>NFT [outfile=]filespec1[,...,filespecN]/FU[:width]
  Where the output file specifier is optional, and defaults to "TI:"
  "width" is a decimal number that specifies the width of the listing,
  with a default value of 72. 
  The format of the /FU display is:

   Directory ELROND::DB0:[7,7]
   3-APR-79 13:27:39

   X.OBJ;4                 1./1.              29-JAN-79 17:46:34 
     [7,7]         [RWED,RWED,RWED,R]        01-FEB-79 09:58:32(1.)
   X.TSK;2                 4./4.           C  29-JAN-79 17:46:51 
     [7,7]         [RWED,RWED,RWED,R]        01-FEB-79 09:58:369(4.)

 Where the ordering of the fields is:
   File_name Blks_used/Blks_alloc Contig/locked_indicator Creation_date
    File_owner      File_protection      Last_modified_date(Mod_number)
1 LIST
  A directory listing can be obtained by typing:
	>NFT [outfile=]filespec1[,...,filespecN]/LI[:width]
  Where the output file specifier is optional, and defaults to "TI:"
  "width" is a decimal number that specifies the width of the listing,
  with a default value of 72. 
  The format of the /LI display is:

   Directory ELROND::DB0:[7,7]
   3-APR-79 13:26:02

   X.MAC;3                 2./2.              29-JAN-79 17:46:23 
   X.OBJ;4                 1./1.              29-JAN-79 17:46:34 
   X.TSK;2                 4./4.           C  29-JAN-79 17:46:51 

  Where the ordering of the fields is:
   File_name Blks_used/Blks_alloc Contig/locked_indicator Creation_date
1 NODE_NAMES
  NFT allows node names to be terminated by either a double colon or
  an underscore. Access control information can be supplied as part of the
  node specificiation, for example:
	NODE/USER_ID/PASSWORD/ACCOUNT::
  Identifies that the three access control strings "USER_ID", "PASSWORD",
  and "ACCOUNT" are to be used when accessing node "NODE".
1 SPOOL
  To spool existing files, the command format is:
    NFT>filespec1[,filespec2,...,filespecN]/SP

  To spool files after copying them, the command format is:  
	NFT>[outfilespec]=infilespec1[,...,infilespecN]/SP
1 SB
 #SUBMIT
1 SUBMIT
  To submit a file, or several files to a remote system, the command
  format is:
	NFT>[outfilespec]=infilespec1[,...,infilespecn]/SB
  If the output file name, type or version are explicitly specified, the
  operation is considered a concatenation. In order to submit multiple
  files with one command line, the output filenames and types must be left
  to default to the input files.
1 SWITCHES
  Valid NFT switches are:
   Switch	Position		Action
   ------	--------		------
    /ID		Alone on line		Display NFT version number
    /HE		Alone on line		Display default NFT HElp text
    /DF:IN	On partial filespec	Set DeFaults for input files
		consisting of node
		and/or device and/or
		UIC
    /DF:OUT	   "			Set DeFaults for output files
    /DF		   "			Set DeFaults for input and output
    /DE		On file, or after	DElete file(s)
		list of files
    /EX		   "			EXecute file
    /SP         On file, or after       SPool existing file(s)
                list of files
                On input or output      SPool file(s) after transfer
                file name(s) in
                transfer command
    /LI		On file, after list	LIst directory (Regular form)	
		of files, or on
		input file (when 
		output is specified)
    /BR		   "			BRief directory list
    /FU		   "			FUll directory list
    /AS		On input file		Transfer in ASCII mode
    /IM		   "			Transfer in IMage mode
    /SB		   "			SuBmit file for execution after
					transfer
1 TRANSFER
  To transfer a file, or several files, the command format is:
	NFT>[outfilespec]=infilespec1[,...,infilespecN]
  If the output file name, type or version are explicitly specified, the
  operation is considered a concatenation. In order to transfer multiple
  files by one comand line, the output filenames and types must be left
  to default to the input files.
