The currently supported programs include:

rsedit  	Allows you to look at a set of rules and choose 
		which ones to edit, move, copy or delete.  Requires 
		a ruleset.  (You should use this most of the time, 
		rather than call the ruleeditor directly.)

		Example:  rseditor incrules

ruleeditor	Allows you to create rules for managing your Email
		You must specify a ruleset and may optionally 
		specify a rule number and a message type.

		Example:  ruleeditor incrules -rn 1 -mt phone

runrules	Allows you to run any ruleset.  You must specify 
		a ruleset and a folder.  Use the -h option for a list 
		of other options.

		Example:  runrules test.rul inbox -n

alinc		Allows you to run a specified ruleset prior on your 
		new mail.  You may specify a ruleset.

		Example:  alinc incrules

alcomp		Allows you to create a message using a specified 
		message type.

		Example:  alcomp -mess phone

lensdc		Allows you to set which data collection parameters 
		you would like.  The default is all data collection 
		on.

		Type:  option at the prompt and specify ra (rule activity),
		rl (rule life), msg (message) or all as either on or off.

Please refer to the documentation for more information.

The first time you run any Athena Lens program, a number of files 
and directories will be created for you.  You may modify these 
if you like.  The default files consist of a .lens.profile file 
in your home directory, a lens subdirectory, a message type 
registry, a ruleset subdirectory, and a data collection subdirectory.

.lens.profile	Placed in your home directory.  Specifies locations 
		of other lens directories and files and whether or 
		not to save message states and properties.

lens		A subdirectory that contains other lens programs.

lens/rulesets	A subdirectory of lens that contains your rulesets.
		Rulesets may also be placed in other directories and 
		specified with pathnames.

lens/mtr.init	A file containing the locations of all your message 
		type registries.

lens/mtr.user	A file containing your personal message types.

lens/data	A subdirectory that contains data about your use of 
		lens.  The lens.data file specifies what and how 
		often data is to be collected.  The program for 
		viewing the state of lens.data has not yet been written.
