I am running Eunice 4.1 under VMS and some Ultrix machines. When
doing a wildcard copy of files from VMS to Ultrix, the file names
are left in uppercase. I am finishing up a program to convert the
file names to lowercase, but Eunice file names need to be handled
specially.
What I need to know is how the "$" mechanism is used by Eunice in
creating file that have invalid VMS names. I understand that "$" is
normally used to change case, but punctuation characters seem to be
handled differently with two characters after the "$". The
documentation I have only discusses the case change.
Does this message make any sense at all?
