For several days I've been trying to figure out who creates a zero-length
file called 'compile' in one of my source directories.  I kept deleting
it, but it kept coming back.  Today I found the following line in a
regularly-used .BAT file:

	REM mk.bat -> compile one directory
                    ^^^^^^^^^
Appears under both DOS 4.0 and DOS 3.30 (under VP/ix).
