Cool.
BTW Dan I was poking around the OpenVMS Web ring (tm) recently and
noted that the vms python page has much higher statistics than
the (i.e. your) vmsperl page(s).
Would you want to join them to the OpenVMS Web ring?
http://www.tetranet.net/taylor/tms/ovmsring/
the page statistics are at:
http://stats.webring.com/cgi-bin/wrstats?ring=openvms
to join go to:

Oh by the way lest anyone think I'm a hardheaded perl zealot in
the current raging perl-vs-python wars I do say let the better
language win whichever it may be (it does seem they don't have dynamic
linking vms python just yet though).
