It would be a huge amount of work, and I'm not sure it'd be practical.
There are a lot of things in VMS that just don't have a mappable
counterpart in the UNIX world. RMS, for instance.
I've had my head deep in the bowels of RMS for the past 4 years. It's
not something that I believe would ever see the light of day on a non-
VMS O/S notwithstanding its appearance in the ontogeny of VMS.
