================================================================================


	This is a procedure for the activation of various command procedures
 without having to have a very large symbol table for your process.  You 
 define one symbol to invoke MIC, and then define symbols inside of MIC that
 are selected as arguments to the MIC call.  The procedure requires that the
 following three process logical names be defined:

	MIC_DATA     -  Specifies where the MIC_COMMANDS.DAT file is located
	MICHLP       -  Specifies the MIC Help directory
	USR$COMMANDS -  Specifies the search directories for undefined
			command procedures.

	To create help files for MIC defined procedures create a .TXT file in
 the MICHLP directory that has the same name as the command file itself.

	MIC takes advantage of the extended IF...THEN...ELSE...ENDIF, made
 available in VMS v5, so do not use this procedure on a v4 or lower system.
 Basic Help on how to use MIC is built into the procedure.

	The file MIC_DATA.FDL is supplied incase you wish to create a new
 database file with the required MIC format.  To create a new database use
 the following command:

	$ CREATE/FDL=MIC_DATA.FDL device:[directory]MIC_COMMANDS.DAT

	MIC has implemented the following commands:
		LIST   -  List out the defined MIC command procedures
		HELP   -  List available commands, or give help on an
		  	   existing procedure
		ADD    -  Define a command procedure in the MIC database
		REMOVE -  Remove a defined command from the MIC database
