Managing TR Files

Just one addition, which is NOT original with me (I forget where I got it,
and it may even have been here on the TR reflector):

If you add a subdirectory called "CONTESTS", and then add further
subdirectories for years and contest names, and have the directory where
TR.EXE and POST.EXE are in your path, then you need only CD to the directory
for the current contest, and start TR.  All of the .DAT files will be
created and modified in the contest-specific subdirectory.  This little
gimmick has made a well-nigh unmanageable file situation transparent and
easy to work with.
