Writing Real Programs in DCL, Second Edition

by Paul C. Anagnostopoulos

Newly revised and updated, Writing Real Programs in DCL, 2nd Edition will help OpenVMS programmers make an intelligent choice between DCL and more conventional programming languages. In addition, it offers a programming language to computer users who are not conversant with conventional languages. Among the new material is information on DCL commands, security, DCL procedures, aliases, searchlists, UIC-based protection, objects, pipes, detached processes, network processes, HTML, CGI scripting and environments, and reading and writing logical names. New chapters on using DCL for the web and DCL and compiled code are particularly relevant to today's programming needs.

Writing Real Programs in DCL, 2nd Edition, also covers updated OpenVMS concepts, files and directories, aliases, searchlists, UIC-based protection, and pipes. The only book devoted to programming in DCL, Writing Real Programs in DCL, 2nd Edition, is an essential guide for OpenVMS developers, administrators, and advanced users.
