... Oh, almost forgot.  You'll also need a decent MAKE utility.  I'm
currently using a public-domain VMS make clone that someone here pulled off
the net in Harvard.  But there are others.  VAX MMS will work, too.

You have to maintain your own list of dependencies, as, obviously, the
shell script for "make depend" included in the makefile won't work under
VMS.  With a moderate amount of effort you could write a C program that would
create a dependencies list from your C sources, which would be a good long-
term approach ...
