RSX/IAS SIG Tape Distribution - Fall 1991
===========================================
This is the RSX/IAS SIG Symposium Tape from the Fall 1991 DECUS
Symposium at Anaheim. The tape contains material submitted by the
user community for the tape at that meeting.
The programs on this tape are from user submissions. The DECUS
staff, the RSX & IAS SIG staffs, and DEC are all in complete ignorance
of the contents of the tapes. No warranty of any kind is implied in
the distribution of these tapes. The programs may or may not be well
documented, they may or may not work, they may even crash your system.
If you have a problem with the contents of the tape, contact the
author of the program. Do not contact DECUS, DEC, or the RSX or IAS
SIGs.
The tape contains about 90 files requiring 4000+ blocks of disk
space. This will fit on a 600 foot reel of tape in BRU format at 1600
BPI, and so is being distributed in this way. To simplify
distribution and production, the tape is a single BRU container file
followed (for the LUG distribution only) by several extra files.
Directory [300,1] contains the files documenting the contents of
the tape. The following files are present:
RSX91BTPE.DOC contains an abstract of the contents of the tape by UIC.
AAAREADME.91B contains a concatenated list of all the README files on
the tape.
RSX91BDIR.LIS contains a directory of all the files on the tape (BRU
does not produce nice directories). This is a brief listing with
UICs and filenames only for space reasons.
SUBMIT.DOC contains guidelines for submissions to the RSX/IAS Sig Tape
collection. This is MUST reading for everyone who desires to
submit a program to the SIG tape.
BEGIN91B.DOC has a copy of this text.
UICSET91B.CMD contains the UFD commands to create all the needed UIC's
on a device whose name is asked for in the command file. Edit it
to match your needs before using BRU to extract the tape contents.
A word of caution: under at least some circumstances, 11M V4.0
BRU's /UFD switch creates directories even when it doesn't put
anything in them.

THIS DIRECTORY CONTAINS:
AAAREADME.1ST, THIS FILE.
BRUSHELL.FOR
A Fortran shell for the DECUS program BRUREAD. This is a fortran
program for VAX/VMS 4.6 or later which system services to manage
BRUREAD. It may be installed and used through the system DCL tables
or a user may do a SET COMMAND and use it from a local directory.
Please refer to program BRUSHELL for configuration parameters. The
tape drive is set to _MTA0: and should be set according to individual
requirements.
NOTE: BRUREAD MUST BE INSTALLED IN THE SYSTEM DCL TABLES OR EXIST
IN LOCAl CONTEXT VIA THE "SET COMMAND" FACILITY.
INSTALL_BRUSHELL.COM
Installation command file. Tailor this to your specific requirements.
BRUSHELL.CLD
Command Line Definition file. Patch the image statement as required.
BRUSHELL.OBJ
VAX/VMS Fortran 4.4 object
BRUSHELL.EXE
VAX/VMS 4.6 executable

THIS SUBMISSION INCLUDES 2 PROGRAMS:
DIR.CMD IS A COMMAND FILE TO GIVE THE USER MUCH MORE INFOR-
MATION ABOUT THE CONTENTS OF A DIRECTORY FILE THAN CAN BE
GOTTON WITH MOST OTHER PROGRAMS SUCH AS PIP OR DIR.
SDF (SHOW DISK FRAGMENTATION) IS A MACRO PROGRAM TO GIVE
THE USER INFORMATION ABOUT THE FRAGMENTS ON A DISK. THE
OUTPUT CAN BE DIRECTED TO A FILE FOR STORAGE FOR THOSE PEOPLE
WHO WANT TO KEEP RECORDS OF SUCH THINGS. BE ADVISED:
THIS PROGRAM WILL NOT WORK FOR THE VERY LARGE NEW DISKS
SUCH AS THE RA-90. WHEN I FIND OUT HOW DEC MODIFIED THE
BITMAP FILE TO HANDLE THESE LARGE DISKS, I WILL MODIFY
AND RESUBMIT THIS PROGRAM.

This is a reissue and update of the SIG Tape Road Map by Annamaria
Szentgali of DECUS MUNCHEN, updated by Jan H. Belgraver of DECUS
Holland. It includes all known RSX tapes (both Europe and US),
plus Pascal SIG and selected IAs and RT SIG tapes.
Additions since the last issue (Fall 1990) are:
Spring 1983 RSX SIG tape.
Fall 1990 RSX SIG tape.
Spring 1991 L&T SIG tape (RSX portion).

CRPADD: Cryptic Addition - V91.340
Author: T. R. Wyant III, E. I. DuPont de Nemours, Richmond,
VA.
Operating System: RSX, VMS
Language: Fortran-77/VAX FORTRAN
Memory Required: VMS: 6KB
RSX: 28KB (no resident libraries)
Other Hardware Required: None
Keywords: Mathematical
Abstract:
This program solves cryptic addition problems by a brute-force
depth-first search. In its current incarnation it will handle
problems of up to 10 addends of up to 60 digits each. The user
is prompted for number of addends, verification (useful for
large problems) whether or not all solutions are desired, and
whether a trace of the logic is desired. Then the actual
addends and sum are requested (with a verify pass if desired).
Input is case-sensitive.
