Takes up where the VAX/VMS documentation leaves off. Find out how to use the Digital Command Language (DCL) to write programs - through the logical, hands-on method presented in this book. DCL is the standard command language for VMS - and is a well-structured, general-purpose programming tool when used to best advantage. Assuming a background knowledge of VMS, the book begins by describing the common features of DCL, then presents it as a programming language, including: * How to use DCL to write large applications * What the pitfalls of the language are, and how to avoid them * How to rapidly develop DCL procedures and modify them as requirements change * How to use paradigms to build more sophisticated programs.
