               MICROVAX/VMS TK50 KERMIT DISTRIBUTION INFORMATION

                                  April 1988

There are two TK50 distribution tapes, TKV1 and TKV2.  TKV1 is equivalent
to Kermit tapes A, B, and E (popular micros - A, popular minis & mainframes -
B, and online documentation).  TKV2 is equivalent to tapes C, D, and E
(less popular micros, minis & mainframes, plus documentation).

These tapes are readable on MicroVAX/VMS systems with BACKUP (not COPY).
To read the tape:

1. SET DEFAULT to the directory under which you want the various Kermit
   subdirectories created.

2. Physically mount the TK50 cartridge, and type "MOUNT $TAPE1/FOREIGN".

3. Type "BACKUP/LOG $TAPE1/SAVE [.*]".

After some time has passed -- about 30-60 minutes -- the files should be
in several subdirectories of your current directory.  These subdirectories
will have names like [KERMIT], [KERMIT-2], [KERMIT-3], etc.
