     NAME       : DOSCB
     DESCRIPTION: DOS Simulation Control Block
     DSECT      : DOSSECT
     FUNCTION   : DOSSECT simulates the CMS file control block
                  (FCB) in the CMS/DOS environment. DOSSECT is
                  called by the DOSCB macro. The DOS simulation
                  control blocks are chained together. The
                  DOSFIRST field in NUCON points to the first
                  DOSCB in the chain, or if no chain exists,
                  contains zero.
