FRONTPORT, SOFTWARE, Porting library for OpenVMS

The FRONTPORT library is a shared image that consists of
enhancements to the DEC C RTL to allow easier migration
of programs writen for the UNIX or LINUX operating systems.

It converts UNIX style file names into Pathwork's style
file names for ODS-2 volumes.

It is useful for programs that need fcntl() locking support
or for programs that need to have crypt() return a password
hash for a VMS username.

This library was developed to allow the building of SAMBA
for OpenVMS with as few patches to the source as possible.

Please read the FRONTPORT_DOCUMENTATION.TXT file for more
complete information.
