* This document  contains six types of record.  They are distinguished *
* by the character printed in position 1:                              *
*                                                                      *
*     alphabetic character (A-Z)  - a variable definition record.      *
*     blank                       - a value definition record.         *
*     left parenthesis ("(")      - a record that  documents the basic *
*                                   provenance of the dictionary.      *
*     percent symbol ("%")        - indicates  one   of  three   kinds *
*                                   of record,  "%FILE",  "%CASE"  and *
*                                   "%TABLE", described below.         *
*     greater than symbol (">")   - used in conjunction with "%TABLE". *
*     dollar sign ("$")           - a title or page-control direction. *
*     asterisk ("*")              - a comment.                         *

*  All dates in the file are represented by century month codes (cmc). *
*  The century month  code is defined  as the number of months  since  *
*  December 1899 and is calculated as follows:                         *
*                       cmc = 12*year + month                          *
*  You can convert from cmc to normal calendar dates like this:        *
*                       year = (cmc - 1)/12                            *
*                       month = cmc - 12*year                          *
*  To  compute the length of time in months  between any  two  events  *
*  subtract the cmc of  the  first  event from the  cmc of the second  *
*  event.                                                              *
