Actually, what Rod said is not exactly true. It depends if the VMS disk is
ODS-2 or ODS-5. Both cases give bad results, but not the same ones.
On ODS-2, both NEXT. and NEXT.DIR are seen as directories. We see two
directories with the same name, Next. The result is that it's impossible
to do
I'm running ODS-2. Sorry for not mentioning it.
The extensionless file completely masks the same-named directory in my
testing.
