Installation:

(1) Build_datebook.com will compile and link Datebook and Remind.
If you don't have VAX Pascal, you can use the object files to relink the
EXE files.  The object files were created with VMS V5.3 and VAX Pascal
version 4.0. 

(2) Datebook uses the logical name (DATEBOOK_HOLIDAYS) to access the file of
holidays.  The logical name DATEBOOK_WARNING_INTERVAL specifies the point (in
days) at which a warning will be displayed about old calendar items.  Both of
these logical names are optional.  Define these in SYS$MANAGER:SYLOGICALS.COM
or SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP_V5.COM.

(3) Datebook can be run directly or from a symbol; there are no command line
options.  Example: define date*book :== $<somewhere>datebook.exe in
SYS$MANAGER:SYLOGIN.COM.

(4) If DATEBOOK_HOLIDAYS is used, define your holidays as in holidays.txt and
CONVERT/FDL=HOLIDAYS.FDL HOLIDAYS.TXT DATEBOOK_HOLIDAYS:

Datebook assumes the terminal is at least VT100 (ANSI) compatible.

The DDIF file DATEBOOK.DOC is the primary source of documentation.  DECwrite
created the postscript file DATEBOOK.PS.  CONVERT/DOCUMENT was used to create
the .TXT file; it is a somewhat less than optimal translation.
