-------------------+------------------------------------------------+
"journal" | Array - Information about the journal file

| Index Contents of Element
| ----- -------------------
| 1 The name of the buffer
| whose contents were
| journaled.
|
| 2 The date and time the journal
| file was created.
|
| 3 The date and time the edit
| session started.
|
| 4 The name of the source file. A
| source file is a file to which
| the buffer has been written. The
| journal file maintains a pointer
| to the source file. This enables
| the journal file to retrieve
| from the source file the buffer
| contents as they were after the
| last write operation. If the
| buffer has not been written out
| or if none of the source files
| will be available during
| recovery, this element contains
| a null string.
|
| 5 The name of the output file
| associated with the buffer.
|
| 6 The name of the original
| input file associated with the
| buffer. If there is no associated
| input file or if the input
| file will not be available during
| a recovery, this element contains
| a null string.
|
| 7 VAXTPU's identification string
| for the version of VAXTPU that
| wrote the journal file.
