MONIT - lightweight ATSIGN HACTRN replacement.

Development happened on DM; "Scenarios for Using Arpanet at the International Conference on Computer Communication" has a 1972-09 transcript showing MONIT 192 on DM. The binary SYS; TS MONIT is listed on AI, MC and ML from 1971 to 1983 in MAPS, although it doesn't survive in the AI/MC KS10 dumps. A 1981 message to BUG-ITS from ED@MIT-ML suggests it was an old version: > ML:SYS;TS MONIT [...] does not have symbols nor the correct start > address (1300). It is pretty badly broken, but great fun to play with > nevertheless.
