        !             9: .I Ptx
        !            10: generates a permuted index to file
        !            11: .I input
        !            12: on file
        !            13: .I output
        !            14: (standard input and output default).
        !            15: It has three phases: the first does the permutation, generating
        !            16: one line for each keyword in an input line.
        !            17: The keyword is rotated to the front.
        !            18: The permuted file is then
        !            19: sorted.
        !            20: Finally, the sorted lines are rotated so the keyword

        !            22: .I Ptx
        !            23: produces output in the form:
