Prasad,
If you are on v7+ of OpenVMS (or is it v7.1+?), you can use the DCL PIPE
command to emulate Unix-style pipes. Although I haven't tried it, it may
produce something similar. For example, instead of the traditional DCL:
$ DEFINE/USER SYS$OUTPUT T.T
$ SHOW SYSTEM
$ SEARCH T.T ORA
...which is similar to the unix "ps -ef|grep ORA" command, you can shorten
it up to:
$ PIPE SHOW SYSTEM | SEARCH SYS$PIPE ORA
You may also want to investigate GNUZip for OpenVMS.
http://www.openvms.digital.com/freeware/FREEWARE50/000TOOLS/ should contain
a directory called "ALPHA_IMAGES" (8i will not run on VAXen, just Alphas)
which will contain a GZIP.EXE file for ya. Yes, I'm aware that the link
will forward you to Compaq's site. Just in case Ken Olsen is watching from
Somewhere Above... :)
HTH!
