/sys$common/syshlp/helplib.hlb MMS, Description File  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

    The description file contains rules that describe how the  components
    of  your system are related and how MMS is to build them.  You create
    and modify  a  description  file  with  any  text editor (or by using
    MMS/GENERATE);  once the description file exists, you need issue only
    a simple MMS command to update your system.

    A description file contains dependency rules  and  can  also  contain
    macro definitions, directives, and user-defined rules.
