I have a program (CircleMUD) I decided I'd port to VMS since no one has done it before that I know of. (There's a Amiga and OS2 and Win95 though) I used the command to get myself a decent amount of temporary disk space. Now how do I automate compiling? Typing 'cc file.c' isn't so bad, but I really don't want to type 40 .obj files on the command line to link. No I'm not going to run it on the VAX if you're wondering :) %LINK-F-OPENIN, error opening ACQUIRE_DIR:[GREERGA]*.OBJ; as input -LIB-E-NOWILD, no wildcard permitted Evil line. Batch file maybe? -- [log in to unmask] \ Genius may have its limitations, but stupidity http://www.van.ml.org/~greerga \ is not thus handicapped. -- Elbert Hubbard
