FWIW, you'd be much better off running the latest and greatest on your VAX=

hardware to take advantage of the performance features contained within=20=


VMS 3
0.9 million lines of code

VMS 5.4
6.5 million lines of code

VMS 7.1
25 million lines of code

I'd like to go back to 5.5H4 and avoid the bloat from OO programming. I was g=

OO!   ROTFLMFA0!



OpenVMS may be written in about 8 different languages but I'm fairly sure none are OO...except MAYBE the few C++ bits according to Wikipedia.
