NOTE for executables built for OpenVMS Freeware CDROM                1998-10-26
-----------------------------------------------------

This program was compiled using

	DEC C V5.7-004 on OpenVMS Alpha I7.2    

by Thomas Dickey <dickey@clark.net>


To run these programs, you should define a foreign command - a symbol
giving the full pathname of the executable, preceded by a '$'.  For
example, these are the foreign commands which I defined when building
these programs:

  BR*OWSE == "$ SYS$SYSDEVICE:[USERS.DICKEY.BIN]BROWSE.EXE"
  E*DIT == "$ SYS$SYSDEVICE:[USERS.DICKEY.BIN]VILE.EXE"
  FL*IST == "$ SYS$SYSDEVICE:[USERS.DICKEY.BIN]FLIST.EXE"
  LYNX == "$ SYS$SYSDEVICE:[USERS.DICKEY.BIN]LYNX.EXE"
  VILE == "$ SYS$SYSDEVICE:[USERS.DICKEY.BIN]VILE.EXE"
  VTTEST == "$ SYS$SYSDEVICE:[USERS.DICKEY.BIN]VTTEST.EXE"
  XVILE == "$ SYS$SYSDEVICE:[USERS.DICKEY.BIN]XVILE.EXE"

In general, I build most of my foreign commands automatically from the
contents of the [.bin] directory under my login directory.  I enclose
my LOGIN.COM file below, for reference.

The alias for EDIT is used in FLIST so that I run VILE rather than the
standard editor.

These are some useful aliases which I use in the FLIST program, for
changing file protections:

  _N == "set protection=(o:rwed,g:re,w:re)"
  _R == "set protection=(o:r,g:r,w:r)"
  _W == "set protection=(o:rwed)"
  _X == "set protection=(o:re,g:re,w:re)"
