I’m trying to wrap my arms around what steps I= need to take to get Diffutils 3.3 running on a OpenVMS Alpha server. = I looked at the readme files and it’s not clear to me where I should= start. 

 

In the VMS_NOTES.TXT file  I found this;

 

SET DEFAULT [.DIFFUTILS-3_3A_VMS.VMS]   ! = For convenience.

 

      MMS /MACRO =3D (= LARGE=3D1)    ! Non-VAX (with large-file support).

      MMS   =             &nb= sp;       ! VAX.

 

My guess is MMS needs to be defined as a symbol?&nbs= p; Any help you can provide would be great!

 

Thanks!
