Someone asked how to use DCL commands from a Pascal program on a VMS machine.
You need to use the LIB$SPAWN command.  I don't have the specifics on how to
use it with me, but it basically spawns another process to execute the command
sent.  Check the VAX Pascal guides for the exact way to call this routine.
