Whitesmith C install

[E. Groenenberg]

Well, it did work, turns out the instruction how to extract the
data is ... in the file itself as 'instal.doc'

For those who want to install Whitesmiths C, use the following
commands to get it done under RSX11M/MP

$ all ms0:
$ mou/for ms0:
$ flx /rs=ms0:[*,*]movemt.cmd/do
$ @movemt
   specify ms0: as the answer, et voila it's done

Now it's playing time again
