    ALL FILES EXCEPT FOR APOLLO_COMMANDS AND APOLLO_KEYS GO IN ANY
    APOLLO DIRECTORY.  APOLLO_COMMANDS AND APOLLO_KEYS GO IN 
    !MACHINE.EDITOR_DATA ON THE RATIONAL.
    IN !MACHINE.EDITOR_DATA.TERMINAL_TYPES INSERT THE LINE
    'APOLLO VT100 64 100'
    AND REBOOT THE SYSTEM.

    COPY EACH OF THESE FILE WITH THESE FILE NAMES INTO ONE APOLLO
    DIRECTORY.  THE NAMES ARE THE SAME EXCEPT FOR THE FOLLOWING:
    CALL_RATIONAL_SH       SHOULD BE COPIED AS    CALL_RATIONAL.SH
    CLOSE_RATIONAL_DMCF    SHOULD BE COPIED AS    CLOSE_RATIONAL.DMCF
    CLOSE_RATIONAL_SH      SHOULD BE COPIED AS    CLOSE_RATIONAL.SH

                           
    THE INTERFACE WORKS BY TYPING IN A SHELL COMMAND WINDOW THE KEY WORD
    'R_CHAT' <RET>
    THIS WILL OPEN 4 SHELL WINDOWS, THREE OF WHICH HAVE INFORMATION 
    (KEYMAPS, ETC.) AND THE FOURTH IS THE TELNET WINDOW TO THE RATIONAL.
    A CONNECTION WILL BE ESTABLISHED AND WILL WAIT FOR A LOGON.
    YOU WILL NEED TO EDIT THE FIRST COMMAND LINE IN THE FILE 
    'CALL_RATIONAL.SH' TO ADDRESS YOUR RATIONAL MACHINE.
    AFTER LOGGING ON AND QUITTING FROM RATIONAL THE 4 SHELL WINDOWS
    WILL DISAPPEAR LEAVING YOU AT THE POINT AT WHICH YOU BEGAN.
    
    IF YOUR LOGON IS UNSUCCESSFUL YOU CAN STOP THE PROCESS BY OPENING
    A SHELL AND ENTERING THE COMMAND  'SIGP -S RATIONAL_DIALOGUE'
    THEN YOU WILL HAVE TO DO 'CTRL N' IN EACH OF THE DISPLAYED WINDOWS
    TO GET RID OF THEM.

    
    APOLLO_COMMANDS CAN BE USED ON A MACINTOSH II RUNNING A VT100 EMULATOR.
    THE ONLY DIFFENCE IN THE KEY MAPPING IS THAT THE FUNCTION KEYS
    LABELED F2 - F5 ON THE APOLLO ARE THE TOP ROW OF THE NUMERIC KEYPAD
    ON THE MAC.  ALSO ESC_GRAVE (THE TIME FUNCTION) WILL HAVE TO BE REMAPPED.
