In my black book (VMS Internals 5.2, p799) I read that there also exists DEC/Shell and CSHELL.

Does anyone knows where they live ?

Wim - those other CLIs where part of the POSIX layered product and long since expired.

John G - that's the sort of fun answer to encourage me to go and play :-) I expect you've been reading the listings again.

Ian, Posix in 5.2 ?

[Wim Van den Wyngaert]

Does anyone remember when VMS became Open ?

Was it when POSIX was added ?

As POSIX is no longer supported, shouldn't it be ClosedVMS or VMS again ?

What was the last 4.x version ?

In any case, my 5.2 book is not called OpenVMS but VAX/VMS.

Wim,

first (visible) pieces of Posix added 5.4-2
renamed to OpenVMS 5.4-3
Last V4.x V4.7-A (or V4.7-H1), not sure which was later, nor if there have been other -H 's)
And V5.2 definitely was VMS, not OpenVMS

hth

Not sure yet about Duvel, I may get into (wheat-) Bokbier tonight.

Try one of those on me.

Cheers.

Thanks to John Gillings! That was exactly what I was looking for (and more).
