Is LAT supported on VMS 3.5 at all?   If so, is it supported without the =
DECnet license? (I don't have a license kit for 3.x)

LAT is _NOT_ part of DECnet.   LAT can be run without DECnet installed or
running.   IIRC, LAT was licensed with VMS.

Ah.   So I just need to find the filename to start it then. ;)

I think that would be LATCP.EXE

That's the control utility but VMS uses the file LTLOAD.COM in SYS$MANAGER/-
SYS$STARTUP to load the driver and define node, port and services during the
system startup.   You'll find something like LATCP="MCR LATCP"/LATCP="$LATCP"
in LTLOAD.COM used to prefix the various commands.
