I think they do. Isn't there some standard that defines the contents of the timezone rule string? Mine looks like: "SYS$TIMEZONE_RULE" = "CST6CDT5,M4.1.0/2,M10.5.0/2" Details of maintaining VMS system time are available here: <http://www.openvms.compaq.com/wizard/openvms_faq.html#TIME4> >>>>>[-.lib.File.Spec.t]rel2abs2rel.t >>>>>Can't pipe "[--.user.jpeacock.perlsrc.perl]perl.exe;1 rel2abs2rel187043.pl": no >>>>>such file or directory at [-.lib.file.spec.t]rel2abs2rel.t line 43. >>You mean relative path, right?

It uses relative path syntax but it's assembled from all the pieces of the absolute path (except the device spec). >FWIW, I am using the generate PERL_SETUP.COM (slightly modified) to test the perl >build without installing it. That should work, though you may have to define PERL_CORE in the environment for some tests. To run the whole test suite you can of course just do MM(S|K) TEST. The canonical way to run individual tests is $ @[.vms]test .exe "" -"v" [-.lib.File.Spec.t]rel2abs2rel.t
