System name:		m37-318-7
Type and version:	POWER 7.3S
Display type:		graygda

What were you trying to do?
	Run SAS/ASSIST; assign library references.

What's wrong:
	When I enter SAS/ASSIST and click on the SETUP menu, the only
choice I'm given is the "assign a new libref" option.  There should be
several more options listed, as there are when running it on a DECstation.
(There seems to be a general problem with incomplete/truncated menus
running SAS on the RS/6000s.)

	Then when I try to assign the library reference (Assing "fawnhood"
to "/mit/oliver/sasuser/fawnhood", I get an error window saying "ERROR:
Module sasev602 not found in search path".  This does not happen on a
DECstation.  	

	In general, SAS does not seem to run very well on the RS/6000s.

What should have happened:

	I should be get a window saying something like "library reference
successfully assigned".
