- As the author of ATG_FT_PATCH (now called NMS_FT_PATCH) I was wondering who out
- there uses it, as I am considering updating it for AXP. Note that it still works
- fine with VMS V5.5-2. As far as I know, this code is the only way to set access
- port names for FT devices, and DEC have not mentioned any plans for this
- (Forrest? Are you out there? Any comment?).
-
- So, if you or your site is using ATG_FT_PATCH, I would like to know (by EMAIL
- please - there's enough crud on Info-VAX as it is...)
-
- Have a Happy and CALM New Year!
