This directory contains the documentation files for the reccat
(formally "catalog" in a fit of American English (and DOS
filesystems??))/rbase suite.

They all previously formed part of the authors coursework for 3EIT.
Since the individuals concerned were given a totally free hand as to
the form and content of their reports, their layout and style differ
markedly.  Rather than edit any of them, I have left them untouched so
that you can see the originals.  Each student was asked to present
information which would guide future developers in improving this
program, so it may be possible for developers to find answers to their
questions here.  Be warned, however, that some file/variable names may
have changed between each programmers individual efforts and the
"finished" package.  In view of the short time available to them (only
timetabled hours!), I think it was unreasonable to ask them to update
their documentaion files as well!

In particular, any reference to running the files in a "stand-alone"
mode should be ignored: this was necessary for testing and marking the
individuals' contributions, but doesn't really apply to the whole package.

Finally, there is no documentation for rbase itself.  I'm not proud of
this (I wrote the C code), but since its of such innate beauty and
inner truth, you should have little trouble in following it! 8-)
