Introduction to the Master Index
The Master Index is a compilation of the indexes to the individual books in
the VAX/VMS Document Set for Version 4.4 of VAX/VMS. Entries in the
local indexes have been edited for consistency of style in the merged Master
Index.
Each keyword or subentry in the Master Index is followed by an abbreviated
book title and the chapter and page reference to the appearance of the topic
in that book. For example, an entry in the Master Index might appear in the
following way:
Login command procedure • Command
Procedures, 1-8; DCL Concepts, 1-2;
Authorize Ref, AUTH-29
This entry indicates that you can find information about login command
procedures in the following books:
•

Page 1-8 in the Guide to Using DCL and Command Procedures on VAX/VMS

•

Page 1-2 in the VAX/VMS DCL Concepts Manual

•

Page 29 in the VAX/VMS Authorize Utility Reference Manual

For more specific information about login command procedures see the
subentries. Some subentries listed under login command procedures are:
execution of for batch jobs
location of
personal
system-defined
The following tables list the abbreviated names used in the Master Index and

Note: System services, RMS services, and Run-Time Library routines are
indexed according to facility prefix. All System services and RMS services
are now indexed under the prefix "SYS" (for example, the Create service
is indexed under SYS$CREATE).
Run-Time Library routines are organized into the following five facilities:
General purpose routines (LIB$)
Math routines (MTH$)
Language independent support routines (OTS$)
Screen management routines (SMG$)
String manipulation routines (STR$)
To reference Run-Time Library routines in this index, look under the
corresponding facility prefix (for example, you will find the general
purpose routine $FIND_FILE indexed under LIB$FIND_FILE).
