Here are the instructions for building your string  li-
brary :


                1) Transfer the files from the supplied  mag
tape to UIC [4
0,5] on your system disk.

                2) Log on to UIC [1,1] .

       
         3) Type the following in response to MCR  if
your installation has ind
irect command file service (if not,
see note below) :

                MCR>@[
40,5]STRLIBBLD



     The indirect command file STRLIBBLD.CMD will build  t
he
library  file  STRLIB.OLB  and  place it on your system disk
under your UIC
.  The command  file  STRLIBBLD.CMD  assembles
each  of the string function sou
rce files and produces list-
ing and object files for each.  LBR is then  used 
 to  build
the  library  file.   This file may then be transferred, re-
named 
and/or modified at the discretion of the user.

     A description of each of 
the  individual  string  func-
tions is available in the file [40,5]STRINGFNC.M
AN which has
been formatted for printing.  Source code listings are  also
avai
lable  and  are  easily  identified  by their respective
names (e.g.  "NULL.MAC
", "INDEX.MAC").

     If you run into problems or if you have  any  comments,

suggestions or criticisms, I'd be glad to here from you.

NOTE:  At installations where indirect command file  servi
ce
is  not  available,  the  operations  performed  by the file
STRLIBBLD.CMD 
must be done manually.  Follow  directions  1)
and  2)  above.   Log into [40,5
].  Then obtain a listing of
the file ASMBLSTR.CMD.  Next invoke MACRO and type
 one  line
of  the  file  in response to each "MAC>" prompt.  This will
create
 the object files needed for LBR to build the library.
Log into [1,1], invoke L
BR and type the following:


STRLIB/CR:50.:128.:64.=[40,5]CONCAT,DUPL,STRING,
ISIZE,IBREAK
STRLIB/IN=[40,5]SDELET,TRUNC,NULL,INDEX,SUBSTR,SINSRT,LEQ
