allow for longer temporary file names

NBPW changed to NBWD to avoid conflict in param.h

Add copyright

use optimal block size.

-a flag allows alignment to be specified; defaults to 2

fixed debugging info and phase error message for label defs.

Add a macro for STRPLACE, just like STROFF

remove manifest constants for NCPString and ASINBUFSIZ, reflecting
the fact that arbitrary length strings are stored in a file

bye bye fixed names (eg, FLEXNAMES is not set)

bye bye VMS: UNIX only. All the preceeding changes to the symbol
table stuff were never tested under VMS

The string pool is maintained both in core, and in a second tmp file.
names are in core and on the file; strings are just in the file. The file

The string pool is maintained both in core, and in a second tmp file.
names are in core and on the file; strings are just in the file. The file
is maintained as a string table per a.out(5), and tacked onto the a.out file
at the very end. The string table has more than need be, since discarde
labels and .ascii strings find their way (harmlessly) into the string table.
the string file maintained with stdio; nothing fancy, even if -V set

consolidate character buffer length definitions (manifest constants)
into one place, with documentation

no more pagsiz.h

last fix curdled @(#) stuff, fixed it

changed to handle longer string constants

Fix reported and outstanding bugs. Reformat some text for
readability/understandability. Assembles new instructions for G and H
format floating numbers & new queue instructions
asscan.c split into 4 files; two additional files to construct and
manipulate G and H format numbers, with analog for atof()
Numerical accuracy of new atof() not verified; standard atof() used
for F and D floating numbers. As does NOT use G and H instructions itself
