INTRODUCTION

The problem history with managing sources for 4 people while using

an assembler with a very limited symbol table size is not amusing.  Let it

suffice that we did what was neccessary at the time.

Our tools have progressed since Sinistar days, but the library will

have to reflect the state of those days in the way it builds a working version

of Sinistar for you.  So it is that the subdirectories for the main programmers

contain their last development version of Sinistar.

FILE ORGANIZATION

Assembly order of overlays:

[.SAM]	Contains all the V17 files from Sam Dicker

[.FALS]	Contains all the V17 files from Noah Falstein	 

[.MICA]	Contains all the V17 files from Bob Mical
