X`09`09      Default is 100 VMS disk blocks, which is approximately
X`09`09      750 lines.  (750 * 64 char/line = 48K char/part).
X`09`09      The maximum is 195 blocks or almost 100,000 bytes.
X`09PUT`09  -   Put a file in the archive. (must be validated first).
X`09`09      Not implemented yet.
X        VIEW      -   Allows you to view to contents of an ARC, LHARC, or
X                      ZOO archive.
X
X    Extensions:
X`09ZOO`09- ZOO file`09ZUU`09- UUencoded ZOO file
X`09ARC`09- ARC file`09AUU`09- UUencoded ARC file
X`09LZH`09- LHARC file`09LUU`09- UUencoded LHARC file
X`09LHW`09- LhWarp file   DIR`09- VMS directory file
X`09WRP`09- Warp file`09UUE`09- UUencoded executable
X`09ABC`09- ABasiC file
X
X`7C    MRCSERV is currently undergoing a restructuring of its' directory
X`7C    trees.  Once the reorganization is complete, all archives will be
X`7C    converted to LHARC archives.
X
X`7C    Wildcards directory and file specifications are allowable with the
X`7C    DIR command.  These follow standard VMS wildcard rules.
X
X    Subdirectories can be accessed via the CD command.  For example, if you
X    see a file with the extension .DIR (ie ARCHIVERS.DIR), CD to it by
X    issuing the command CD `5BARCHIVERS`5D (case insensitive, brackets are n
Vot
X    required).  To move to the parent directory issue the command CD `5B-`5D
X    (Brackets are required) To move to the root directory issue command
X    CD `5B000000`5D
X
X    Binary files (ZOO/ARC/LZH/EXE) will be uuencoded before being sent.
X
X    Files larger than 100 VMS disk blocks will be sent in multiple parts.
X    You will be informed of the number of parts in the server's response.
X    You can change the 'split factor' with the PARTSIZE command.
X
X    All files will be sent as separate messages (except HELP and DIR).
X
X    You may only transfer 5000 VMS disk blocks during any one session.
X
X    In the reply sent by MRCserv, your commands are preceded by a less-than
X    sign "<".  MRCserv responses are preceded by a greater-than sign ">".
X
X    MRCserv now places the request number in the 'personal name' header
X    item, ie.  'FROM:  (MRCserv request 123) <mrcserv@janus.mtroyal.ab.ca>'
X    The request number is displayed in the response file so you should now
X    be able to figure out where those INDEX.LIS files are comming from.
X
X    Any questions regarding the archive or MRCserv software can be directed
X    to Postmaster@Janus.MtRoyal.AB.CA
