[HECnet] HECnet .HLP library for OpenVMS

[Sampsa Laine]

So any suggestions for markup?

I've been playing around with this in my head and thought that maybe something like this could work..

- Any line starting with three pipe symbols is a "command"
  For example:
	|||ENTRY_START
	|||ENTRY_END
		We can use these to have multiple documents
		in one file

	|||TITLE|HILANT:: VAXcluster	Title of the entry
	|||DATE|1-JAN-2015		Date of document
	|||VERSION|1.01			Version of document
	|||AUTHOR|Sampsa Laine
	|||AUTHOR_MAIL11|HILANT::SAMPSA
	|||AUTHER_SMTP|sampsa at mac.com

	|||H|1|This is a heading	Heading level, 1, Name
	|||SECT_START			Start of text section
	|||SECT_END			End of section
		Analogous to <p>...</p> in HTML

	|||HTTP_LINK|http://www..|Link description
		(like <a href="http://..">Decription</a> in HTML)

	|||FAL_LINK|CHIMPY::[INFO]FOO.TXT|Link description
		Same as HTTP link but with a reference to an object
		on HECnet - not sure how to use this right now, maybe
		produce some kind of menu to interesting documents on
		HECnet

	|||CTERM|HILANT|Description
		Again, not sure exactly how to use this but could be used
		to generate a menu like LAUNCH on CHIMPY
