LUE Command
-----------

Purpose:   Extract one or more files (members) from an LU or LAR type library.

Format:    LUE  [d:][path]filename[.LBR] [mbrnames[.ext]]

Remarks:   The library name must be supplied. It may contain a drive
           and/or path names, and may contain wildcards. Only the first
           matching library file is processed.

           If the member name is omitted, all files are extracted. There
           may be as many member file names specified as will fit in a
           128-byte command line.

           Wildcards may be used in the member names.

           The output file names are taken from the member names.

           The date and time of the output file(s) are set to the same
           date and time as the input library file, unless they are
           stored in the directory entry.

           Directory entry format:
                0 - status flag
                1 - filename in FCB format
               12 - offset to data
               14 - length of data, 128-byte sectors
               16 - creation date, MM-DD-YY
               24 - creation time, HH:MM:SS

Examples:
           - Extract all members from file TEST.LBR

                LUE B:TEST.LBR

           - Extract all COM files from file PGM.LBR

                LUE PGM.LBR *.COM

           - Extract member PROG.BAK from file SOURCE.LBR

                LUE C:\STUFF\SOURCE.LBR PROG.BAK

           - Extract all COM files from file TEST.LBR

                LUE B:\BACKUP.DSK\TEST *.COM

           LUE duplicates the A and E function of LU. The advantages
           of LUE are:

           - smaller, so a copy can be kept on the "system" disk
           - faster, mucho
           - handles paths and wildcards.
           - retains input file or member date/time

           Version 1.6, June 26, 1984
           Version 1.7, August 8, 1984.
                Corrects problem extracting large files.
                Checks for new CRC codes in directory.
           Version 1.8, September 25, 1984
                Extracts members from LU86 format libraries.
           Version 1.9, February 8, 1985
                Assumes a library file extension of LBR.
                Allows wildcards in the library file name.
                Allows multiple member files to be selected.
