    updated with some new enties.

    Thanks to Steve Glanstein, who found some free timeto look at this.

    2000/08/16: There were some typos in the source of MIMCHAT0 :

    1) In the redefinition of NETWORK-ATTR, some fieldsrefers to NETWORD-ATTR.

    2) THE-TIMESTAMP should be declared as char(8), thiscaused an error in the corresponding CVTHC-instruction.

    And in MIRTVDT:The first instruction should refer to .MACHINE-ATR andnot to .MAT-TIMESTAMP.

    These have been fixed (and MLP002.doc and MLP004.dochave been updated accordingly).

    Thanks to Chris Spirinckx for pointing this out.
