This could use a bit of reformatting. I stripped off trailing spaces from a handful of lines but otherwise have kept it as is since the formatting issue is minor.

probably work too. Ancient VAX C probably will not. The set of

Makefiles are known to be out of date; use vmsbuild.com instead.

1. NetHack 3.6 was built and tested on OpenVMS on both the Integrity
|

and Alpha platform using the HP C V7.3 for OpenVMS compiler. While
|
||||
not tested, older versions of DEC C will most likely work as compatibility
|
||||
with older systems is a goal of the VMS porting team. Unfortunatly,

ancient VAX C probably will no longer work. The set of Makefiles provided

4. If you have the programming utilities lex or flex and yacc or bison,
|
||||
you may edit the procedure [.sys.vms]spec_lev.com and execute it to
|
||||
process several source files for NetHack's special level and dungeon
|
||||
compilers. If you don't modify spec_lev.com, it will copy some
|
||||
pre-processed versions of the appropriate files (dgn_lex.c, lev_lex.c,
|
||||
compilers. If you use the version of these utilities from the OpenVMS
|
||||
freeware CD you will have to remove the include <stdlib.h> that yacc
|
||||
places at the top of each file. The provided spec_lev.com will default
|
||||
to copy pre-processed versions of the appropriate files (dgn_lex.c, lev_lex.c,
|
||||
dgn_yacc.c, lev_yacc.c, dgn_comp.h, and lev_comp.h) from [.sys.share]

into [.util]*.c and [.include]*.h.

If you perform this step, do it prior to executing vmsbuild.com; if

you don't perform this step, vmsbuild.com will do so for you.

If you choose to modify spec_lev.com, you want to run and test your

changes prior to executing vmsbuild.com; otherwise, vmsbuild.com will

do so for you and the results might not be what you expect.

following DCL command:

|
||||
or $ @[.SYS.VMS]VMSBUILD "GNUC" !force "GCC"

this will be the name of each source file that's about to be compiled
