VMSHEX and VMSDEH
Originally by Stuart Hecht of Stevens Institute of Technology.
Later versions by Eric McQueen, Utah State University.
VMSHEX is a Macro-32 program to convert any VMS file into a printable ASCII
"hex" file, suitable for transfer as a text file by Kermit, electronic mail,
or other means. VMSDEH will convert a hex file created by VMSHEX back into
its original form, with all FILES-11 attributes intact.
The current version of VMSDEH.MAR supports both 16-bit-address and
32-bit-address format files by changing the ':' that starts each line to '<'
for 32-bit- address lines (you can also use 24-bit addresses by putting ';' on
the front of a line). It does not require the output file to be contiguous.
VMSHEX only creates 32-bit address lines. Older versions of VMSHEX created
16-bit lines. The current version of VMSDEH should be able to decode either
kind of file correctly.
To use either of these programs, simply run it. It will prompt you for
any required input or output file names.
