## Mtools 3.9.10 for VMS

### Mtools 3.9.10 VMS-Ready Kit

- VMS port notes (as included in the complete kit, below). This document describes the changes required to build Mtools 3.9.10 on VMS.

- Complete kit, including:
  - Source (original and modified).
  - Alpha objects and executable (built on VMS V7.3-2 with HP C V7.1-015).
  - IA64 objects and executable (built on VMS V8.2-1 with HP C V7.2-001).
  - VAX objects and executable (built on VMS V7.3 with Compaq C V6.4-005).

  Note that support for extended file names on ODS5 file systems depends on fairly recent C RTL features, as found in VMS V7.3-2 or VMS V7.3-1 with VMS731_ACRTL V3.0.

  The Zip archive for this kit was created using the Zip "-V" option to preserve the VMS file attributes, but the source files in this Zip archive should be usable on a non-VMS system. The VMS port notes mentioned above (and included in the kit) describe how to restore the original mixed-case and/or multi-dot file names in the kit which have been altered to accomodate the more limited VMS ODS2 file system where this work was done.
