The first part of the subscript is always be ^TMP("IB",$J,"INTERFACES".
For output routines, but not selection routines, the fourth subscript is
be the patient DFN. The next subscript is the name of the Package
Interface. For single valued data and record valued data there is no
additional subscript. For interfaces returning a list there is one
additional subscript level, the number of the item on the list. For
word processing type data the data will be in FM word-processing format,
i.e., the final subscripts will be ...1,0),...2,0),...3,0), etc.
these items of data can have its own entry in the Package Interface file,
Import/Export Utility as a temporary staging area for data from that file
but by using the same entry point there is a savings because all of the
data on that node can be obtained at once. The routines that invoke the
entry point keep track of the entry points already invoked so they are
not repeated.
