If I find a work-around, I will post it on comp.sources.apple2 The last time I posted sciibin to the net, the posting included a file comtaining the option-parsing routine (getopt) for those machines that don't have getopt in their standard libraries. So it should be very easy to port it to VMS because is very straight forward. The only thing that might need a work-around is the seeking. If you don't have code to simulate seek in VMS, I have it around somewhere (in another pachage a posted to the net: dvi2tty). -Marcel -- ######################################### # Marcel J.E.
