Note that "package" is a reserved word in VHDL so you should call
your package something else (e.g. asg3) and use:

	use work.asg3.all ;

In MaxPlusII the work library is stored in the project directory.
The work library will contain all of the packages compiled with
the same project directory (read the file "Lib.dls" with notepad
to see a list of the packages currently in a directory's work
library).

If you put the files for one assignment/lab in the same directory
then all the packages you compile should end up in the same
"work" library.
