Sorry all. Apparently I wasn't very clear. I was responding to Chris Langford's posting regarding *his *program to do this function. I agree that it would be very useful and is something that I really hope he makes available either on the VM Download site or thru the less formal but equally useful download site that Fran Hensler at Slippery Rock Univ. keeps.

That would make a great addition to the VM Download site. There are real shortcomings to DCSSBKUP & DCSSRSAV, namely losing the creation date and only being able to handle DCSS's, ie not NSS's and the other files you mentioned.

On a restore, if needed, the appropriate DEFSEG/DEFSYS is constructed based upon the file to be restored and issued. Restored files may be issued new
names.
Documentation is sketchy but if there is interest that can be fixed.
