The AEPutKeyDesc function takes a descriptor record and a keyword and

converts them into a keyword-specified descriptor record that it adds to an

AE record.

The parameter theAERecord is the AE record to which to add the

keyword-specified descriptor record.

The parameter theAEKeyword is the keyword specifying the descriptor

record. If there was already a keyword-specified descriptor record with this

keyword, it is replaced.

The parameter theAEDesc is the descriptor record for the keyword- specified

descriptor record.
