Hi all,

have managed to get the kit, installed, and all is fine.
Not sure, if you know this link, is a brilliant blog of all the required tasks.

https://raymii.org/s/blog/OpenVMS_9.2_f ... arted.html

currently transferring all our code from our Vax/Alpha/Itanium - source repositories.

Being curious - I've started with one of my favourite tools, CSWING.
For some reason, not sure why, the mms run was interrupted several times with this information
%MMS-F-ABORT, For target [.OBJ]SEARCH.OBJ, CLI returned abort status: %X10B91260.
%MMS-F-ABORT, For target SYSTEM, CLI returned abort status: %X10EE8034.

But , just entered
# mms
until all was done.

And .. it runs. WOW!

I'm really amazed, and keen to start to port more tools. If interested, I'll build an installation kit for this and others.

Thanks VSI - great job.

That's great; CSWING is a favorite of mine too. Where do you find the source?

It is available on the internet.

One copy is here:

I have no idea whether it is latest and greatest.

Got it; thanks. Also found v3.7.6 elsewhere. v3.7.6 will compile (with @COMPILE and then @LINK) ands despite warnings it works.

Thanks,
Malcolm
