    PARMQUAL PROGRAM
    ----------------


	The  PARMQUAL  program is designed  to be used  inside command
	procedures.   It parses the arguments  passed to the procedure
	(the  DCL  Symbols P1 through P8),  which are assumed to be in
	the format of DCL command parameters and qualifiers,  and sets
	local symbols to the values  derived from the arguments.   For
	instance, if:

		P1 = "AAA/BBB/CCC"
		P2 = "DDD"
		P3 thru P8 = ""

	Then PARMQUAL sets the following symbols:

		PARM1 = "AAA"    PARM2 = "DDD"    PARM3 = ""
		QUAL1 = "/BBB"   QUAL2 = "/CCC"   QUAL3 = ""

	Thus the procedure  does not need  a lot of statements to cor-
	rectly  split symbols  into atomic parts,  and to discriminate
	parameters from qualifiers.
