COMPLINK - This procedure will compile and link all programs in this directory. devmon - This is a useful utility to look at IO device activity. It will report the IO activty on the specified IO devices. Since VMS verison 4 came out it is not quite as useful (MONTIOR DISK came out with V4) but it is still useful for non disk devices. To use compile and link it. Then issue a run command. It will accept a list of IO devices to be monitored either interactively or from a disk file. GANGDCL - Those of you familiar with DG computers will appreciate this utility. It will perform a DCL type operation on a list of files instead of just one file. To use compile and link. Then create a file containing a list of the files the intended operation is to be performed against one file per line. Issue a SET COMMAND GANGDCL and a GANGDCL command. You will first be asked the file containing the list of file names and then the DCL command. Within the DCL comamnd a "#" symbol should be placed where the file names will be inserted. The operations will then be performed. For example: GANGDCL "FILE.NAM" "EDIT #" or GANGDCL "FILE.NAM" "COPY # [ANOTHER.DIRECTORY]" LEAVE and LEAVEEXE - This is yet another reminder utility. The LEAVE program will spawn the LEAVEEXE program. The LEAVEEXE program will then hibernate until the wakeup time and deliver a message to the terminal before aborting itself. Issue a RUN LEAVE command to start or define LEAVE as a foreign command with a line such a "LEAVE :== $BINDIR:LEAVE" in your login proceudre. LEAVE will ask you both the time and the message when it is activated. LEAVE is currently set up to spawn LEAVEXE from a directory with the logical name BINDIR:. Either the logical name should be defined or LEAVE should be modified to spawn LEAVEEXE from another directory by editing the source and then compiling and linking it.
