Well... that was a bust. The "EXECSERVE $MANUAL" file contained: The EXECSERV MANUAL file has been omitted due to space considerations. The entire EXECSERV package is available on the Waterloo VM mods tape. Interested parties are directed to that tape.
I could not find any files with names containing 'EXECSERV' that looked liked a manual on the 20 Workshop tapes I have. Workshop tapes often contained Waterloo tape files, VMSHARE files, and PCSHARE files, and sometimes UK tape files.
