At one point there were two separate products that were combined to
create DOS/BATCH. It was sold until the late 70's but deemphasized
in favor of RT-11.

I have a bunch of DECtapes of this material queued up to be read in
the next few months. The one document that I'm missing was the companion
to the DOS/BATCH handbook that was the sys admin guide which describes
the system generation process.

A copy of a DOS/BATCH distribution tape that John Wilson and I read
has been forwarded to Bob Supnik. Hopefully there's still someone left
who would be willing to give permission for its release similar to that
given for the version of RT that he has.
