#  Version:  1.4  December 28, 1993  Phillip Lee Thomas
#                 _delimiter added to global list.
#                 OS conventions moved to Set_OS() from
#                    idxtext.icn and gettext.icn.
#  Version:  1.5  August 5, 1995 Add MS-DOS/386 to features check.

#  
#  Pretty mundane stuff.  Set_OS(), Basename(), Pathname(), Strip(), and
#     a utility for creating index filenames.
