The bash on VMS works differently? ">>" and ">" have no difference?
apperently....
the -o option on OpenVMS results in : "could not open '<filename>' for writing"
Oops!! I will fix when I get the license for OpenVMS/x86-64.
Thank you and sorry for taking care on it.
Thanks! Very informative, especially the future of VSI cross compiler.
Just I've checked the free-charged licensing program of OpenVMS,
it seems that the community license for x86-64 architecture is possible,
but no community license for Alpha and Itanium. Which architecture do
you use? Just I've submitted my request for x86-64 architecture...
The comunity license for Alpha and Itanium was dropped last spring. However
OpenVMS on those plaform is still supported by VSI.
I'm in the so called "ambassadors program" of VSI. So I have still access to
all three platforms (Alpha, Itanium and x86_64).
Great. There are a few Alpha machines in the storage of my laboratory
(but I guess their button batteries are already empty and cannot boot
anymore), but never had an access with Itanium platform.
Freetype was tested on all three flavours of OpenVMS. see:

Thanks!
