Notes on building MS version 10:

This tape contains all the files necessary to build MS.
Here are the files from the tape that are part of the MS release:

Common files between TOPS-10 and TOPS-20:
	MS.MAC and MSX.MAC
	MS.RNH and MS.HLP  (note that you run this through DSR with
			   /VARIANT:"TOPS20" for a TOPS20 help file and
			   /VARIANT:"TOPS10" for a TOPS10 help file)
	MS.RND and MS.DOC
	MSINST.RNO and MSINST.MEM
	MSVER.RNO

Tops-10 only:
	MS10.CTL
	LGNMS.MAC	   Mail hook for LOGIN

Tops-20 only:
	MS20.CTL
	MSLNK.LNK
	MSFIL.REL	   MS version of GLXFIL (TOPS-20 only)
	MAILEX.MAC  
Net daemons:
	MSNETS.CTL
	DNCUNV.MAC
	DNCONN.MAC
	DMAILR.MAC
	NMAIL.MAC


A fixed version of GLXFIL has been renamed to MSFIL and appears on the
tape in .REL format.   MSLNK.LNK contains the LINK commands to hook it
up with MS to a standard GLXLIB.  You will get one multiply-defined global
(FILEDT) because of this kludge.  If you don't get this error, something
went wrong.  MS20.CTL is the build control file.  The build area should
contain or point to all the GLXLIB modules.  Be sure that GLXLIB.REL was
built with GLXPURE=0 (the standard GLXLIB.CTL builds it that way).

The TOPS-10 version is built with a totally standard GLXLIB.
See MS10.CTL to build MS on TOPS-10.

The network daemons (TOPS-20 only) are simple to build.  Just look at
MSNETS.CTL.  Nothing funny here.
