The command above Mark does not seem to work on my VMS at all. I
can get it to accept this,
att tq -F FIXED vmst /* vmst is a rename of the Hobbyist VA.TXT
license, tried the original name it didn't work either */

The OS request I mount the following name,
mount /over=id _BUC$MUA0: /* That it takes but it doesn't work */
Ha I am stumped here. I can't remember what all the $ and : mean. And
the [] I think mean directory. The numbers after ; I remember are
version numbers and that's what purge is for.
