 3.7. Step 7: Compiling the Control Files
 Every time you modify max.ctl or any of the other control
 files, you must run SILT, the Maximus control file compiler.
 If you make changes to your control files and forget to run
 SILT, Maximus will not recognize the changes that you have
 made.
You have to RESILT after EVERY modification to ANY .CTL file.
Take care,
Anthony Tibbs
