- Does anyone have a version of TAR running for VMS (5.5)? I tried the GNU Tar
- distribution and got rid of most of the errors, but got stopped at:
-
- /*
- * FIXME: On other systems there is no standard place for the header file
- * for the portable directory access routines. Change the #include line
- * below to bring it in from wherever it is.
- */
- #include "ndir.h"
-
-
- Since there is no such <ndir> file, or anything like it. Even with this fixed,
- I am willing to bet that GNU tar would still have problems as it isn't intended
- for VMS.
-
- SO, does anyone have source/exec for a version of tar?
-
- Thanks
