Anyone from DEC fancy sending me the cd? |>I seem to recall Steve Lionel sent me a copy last year... (thanks) Um, I don't think so. This is the first freeware CD for OpenVMS (there has been one for OSF/1 for a while.) I don't even have my own copy of the new one yet (though I'm told I'll get one.) Here's what I put in the most recent FAQ about the Freeware CD: An OpenVMS Freeware CD was distributed at DECUS (US and Australia) in late 1994 - this CD will also be included with future versions of OpenVMS for VAX and AXP systems. The OpenVMS Freeware CD is available online at: ftp://ftp.montagar.com/ http://www.montagar.com/dfwlug/ This CD contains a large assortment of freeware and is a good starting point if looking for utilities. Many of the packages listed below are also on the Freeware CD. This server, belonging to the DECUS Dallas/Fort Worth LUG also provides "Almost 350,000 blocks of white papers, OpenVMS rebuttals, good articles, engineering information, and other assorted OpenVMS Positive 'Stuff'." -- Steve Lionel Mail: lionel@quark.enet.dec.com DEC Fortran Development WWW: http://www.digital.com/info/slionel.html Digital Equipment Corporation CompuServe: 75263,3001 110 Spit Brook Road, ZKO2-3/N30 Nashua, NH 03062-2698 "Free advice is worth every cent" For a summary of Digital's Internet services, send mail to info@digital.com
