This package contains the turbo pascal libary for handling
Maximus 2.0 Squish files.  These are basic low level routines and
good programmers should not have any trouble using them. A sample
program SQDEMO is provided to show you have to read a message
file. TESTADD.EXE will show you how to WRITE a message to the
squish FILES.

This API should be sufficient for most programmers to get
started.
