There is a program called VMSHEX that comes with VMS KERMIT, which
ASCIIfies VMS files while retaining their file attributes.  It's
written in MACRO (which nearly *every* VMS site ought to have), so I'd
suggest using that format for a MicroEMACS binary posting.

P.S. If anybody would like a copy of MicroGNUEmacs 1b compiled for VMS
4.4, there will be a copy on the VAX SIG library tape from the Spring
DECUS symposium in Nashville.  (If you're in a hurry, drop me some
E-mail and maybe we can work something out.)
