How do you get the RMS structures out from "underneath" C? Under DEC C, use the "acc" callback on the open() call to get access to the FAB and RAB. Under VAX C, use the _fstat call. _fstat() takes four arguments, a file descriptor, a pointer to a pointer to a FAB, a pointer to a pointer to a NAM, and a pointer to a pointer to a RAB. The latter three are filled in by _fstat().
