NOTES, Utilities, Notes Conferencing Software

Also please see the [NOTES_FT] kit on the OpenVMS Freeware V7.0.

This kit contains the OpenVMS VAX and OpenVMS Alpha kits for the
Notes conferencing system, and a client for Microsoft Windows.

Notes is now officially a retired and an unsupported product.

Present here are the main release and an ECO kit containing a complete
distribution with updates.  Depending on the application, one or the
other might be preferable.

Due to changes made in OpenVMS V7.3 and later, the NOTES/DECWINDOWS
command does not operate correctly when using these kits -- you can 
use the command NOTES/NODECWINDOWS to start and run Notes in this
configuration, or load the appropriate provided replacement images.

Included is an updated version of the [.ALPHA]DDIF$VIEWSHR.EXE image 
for Notes operations with DECwindows on certain configurations with 
OpenVMS Alpha V7.3 and later.

For OpenVMS VAX V7.3 and later, the images [.VAX]DDIF$VIEWSHR.EXE and 
[.VAX]NOTES$DWSHARE.EXE are provided. 

The [.WINDOWS]NOTES-V15CI.ZIP is a Microsoft Windows NT Intel IA-32 kit, 
and [.WINDOWS]NOTES-V15CA.ZIP is a Microsoft Windows NT Alpha kit.  Please 
see the instructions within these Zip kits for details on installation and 
operation of Notes on Microsoft Windows.

The associated Software Product Description (SPD) files (for the 
now-retired OpenVMS VAX and OpenVMS Alpha products) are provided, and
a license PAK needed for operations on OpenVMS VAX and OpenVMS Alpha.

Documentation for the Notes shareable image callable API is also provided.
