I should probably make a manual HLP file for LEGATO, Bob you OK with that? LEGATO's INFO.TXT have real yucky file attributes and a real yucky file format. :-) (What on earth was used to produce it???) Directory LEGATO::SYS$SPECIFIC:[FAL$SERVER] 31-DEC-12 13:59:07 INFO.TXT;1 Size: 8./35. Created: 08-JUL-10 10:54:52 Owner: [000376,000373] Revised: 27-DEC-12 19:24:34(6.) Expires: <none_specified> File protection: System:RE, Owner:RE, Group:RE, World:RE File organization: Sequential File attributes: Allocation=0 Record format: Stream-CR, no maximum defined Record attributes: Carriage return What does it mean if you have stream-CR and attribute Carriage Return? I mean, yes, each record is separated by a CR, and then what? Add an additional CR at the end of each line? Also, if I pull the file down to MIM, it gets really strange. Dumping the file, there aren't a single CR in the file. Each line is terminated by a LF, so it looks really Unixy. Not sure if something mangled the file during the transfer maybe, or does it look that way on a VMS system too?

I think I may be too much of a newcomer here to know about it. Where should it be, and what should it contain? Bob has a nice explanation in his INFO.TXT file on LEGATO. Got it...Thanks! -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
