I have ported the following programs to VMS:

	* GNU diff
	* stevie, a vi clone

All VMS changes are conditionalized with '#ifdef VMS'.  They are available
via anonymous FTP from mango.miami.edu (129.171.0.18) in ~ftp/pub:

	gnu-diff.tar.Z
	stevie.tar.Z

In addition, there are two more tar savesets:

	termlib.tar.Z		TERMCAP library
	bsdlib.tar.Z		BSD emulation routines

The TERMCAP library is straight out of the MicroGnu distribution. The
BSDLIB library contains handy routines when porting BSD and/or Unix
programs.  Of note is my implementation of the directory reading routines
opendir, readdir and closedir.  You'll need bsdlib if you want to rebuild
gnu diff and you'll need termlib if you enable the TERMCAP option in stevie. 

I have include  makefiles for the programs and the libraries.  You need to
get Nelson Beebe's make program if you don't already have it.

If you find bugs and fix them I would appreciate hearing about it.
Don't ask me to mail you the software, I just don't have the time to
handle these requests.
