  10. Hi there,
  11.  
  12.   I just got a copy of DISM32, and I'm having some weird problems.
  13. Firstly, it spits out a bunch of FORTRAN errors at me when I run
  14. it on DCL.EXE (some other things, too); could these have to do with
  15. it needing to be relinked? I'm running VMS 5.5, and I ftp'd the
  16. version from ftp.spc.edu. Anyway, here's what it says:

  86. =================================CUT HERE======================
  87.  
  88. Anyway, the reason I'm doing this (in case you missed my prev. post)
  89. was I'm trying to figure out how to patch DCL to use a prompt
  90. longer than 32 chars. So, I looked at Hunter's DCL recall patch. He
  91. mentions using DISM32 to disassemble DCL.EXE. I've done this (assuming
  92. the above problem isn't affecting this) and it fails to recognize
  93. the symbols in SYS$SYSTEM:DCLDEF.STB (not surprisingly). In an effort
  94. to remedy this, I did a LINK/NOEXEC/FULL/MAP SYS$SYSTEM:DCLDEF.STB and
  95. then converted the symbols there to DISM32 .SYM format, and gave them
  96. a mask of FFFFFFFF, and called the file DCL.SYM. I then ran DISM32 on
  97. DCL.EXE again, and it still failed to use those symbols. Ideas?
