Compiling ALGOL60 programs


    The  ALGOL  command  calls  the  ALGOL  compiler to compile an ALGOL
source file. The form of the command should be:

         ALGOL(source,object,list,faults)

    The third parameter may be omitted in which case the listing is sent
to  a subsystem file named 'T#LIST'. Optionally the fourth parameter can
be used to specify a device or file for  a  list  of  any  compile  time
faults.  

Example:   ALGOL(SS,SY,SL,.OUT)
           ALGOL(PROG1,PROG1OBJ)

    If the object file is currently inserted  in  the  active  directory
then  at  the start of compilation all but its name are removed from the
directory, and if compilation is successful it is re-inserted.
