Mark,

If you want to try another source I could try making it available for you. Let me know.

Hi Rob,

I'm good thanks - I managed to get it installed once I'd got the saveset across to ORAC.
Interestingly I'm not certain this is the version that I used back in the day looking at the header files, but it has already brought back a lot of memories of Modula-2 in general.

How would I go about installing this? Extracting the backup to a scratch disk and then running VMSINSTAL?


Looking at the definition files for the system libraries reminds me of Benchmark Modula-2 for the Amiga (which I've still got the manual for but have been unable to locate a copy of the code itself having suffered bit rot from my original disks) which has comprehensive coverage of the entire system in Modula-2 form.

Regards, Mark.

Go into each of the [.KIT] directories and create a saveset a level up with an extension the same as the kit directory, for example in [.KIT.C]: 

$ backup/log [...]*.*; [-]modula031.c/sav

when you have then all run the installation procedure in the directory with the savesets, in my case:

$ @sys$update:vmsinstal modula031 DSA1:[MSW.MODULA.KIT]

Regards, Mark.



Thank you. I will do as such once I get the save set copied over from legato::, it's going rather slowly. ;)

It's still copying   how big /IS/ this? ;)
