1 NEWS
  To access the NEWS facility, setup the product in your LOGIN.COM
file with a  @LIB:[LIB.NEWS]SETUP  command.
 
  Type  NEWS,  then  SET FILE NEWS,  then standard VMS MAIL commands
such as  DIRECTORY  or  READ.  We expect in the future to give you
a directory directly on typing NEWS; meanwhile the extra commands
are necessary.
 
     NEWS  items  are  single-screen  (about  24  lines)  articles
introducing new system and applications features, or just items of
general interest.  A single NEWS system is to  be  maintained  for
the  Central  Computer  Facility.   Items  specific  to  a  single
mainframe should be so labeled in the Subject text,  by  prefixing
with  the  string   *CDC*  ,  *DEC*   or   *IBM*   as appropriate.
Permanent documentation is contained in the standard writeups  and
HELP  libraries;   the  NEWS  items are retained only for archival
purposes.  Items which become obsolete have subjects  prefixed  by
the string  *OBS*. Items are stored in reverse chronological order.
