Greetings,

	I have problems with setting MicroEmacs working on VMS system. Here 
are the files I compiled and linked: 

 $ cc BASIC , BIND , BUFFER , CHAR , CRYPT , DISPLAY , EVAL , EXEC , FILE, -
   FILEIO , INPUT , ISEARCH , LINE , MAIN , MOUSE , RANDOM , REGION , -
   SEARCH , VMS , WINDOW , WORD 
 $ Macro SMG 
 $ link/exec=meshr BASIC, BIND, BUFFER, CHAR, CRYPT, DISPLAY, EVAL, EXEC, -
   FILE, FILEIO, INPUT, ISEARCH, LINE, MAIN, MOUSE, RANDOM, REGION,-
   SEARCH, SMG, VMS, WINDOW, WORD, sys$input/option
 sys$share:vaxcrtl/share 

	I got a few complict attributes with the name CNAME and PATHNAME,
and undefined symbols MV_UX, SHARED, etc. The serious problem is the 
undefined macro:

%LINKWNUDFSYMS, 1 undefined symbol:
%LINKIUDFSYM, 	RENAME 
%LINKWUSEUNDEF, undefined symbol RENAME referenced
	in psect $CODE offset %X000008B1
	in module FILE file $DISK3:[KANG.MEMACS]FILE.OBJ;1

	I searched all the file and found the only definition of RENAME() 
is in the file AOSVS.C. But AOSVS.C doesn't seem to have anything to do 
with the VMS implementation. Can someone help me out here?

	The Reference Manual said something about XON/XOFF flow control. 
This is a new problem to me. I had no such problem with version 3.9e. Just 
wondering why the advanced version brings some problems that lower version 
doesn't have?

	Finally, I don't seem to get the file VMSVT.C from the archive. I 
see it is needed in DESCRIPT.MSS. Can someone send me a copy? Thanks.
