Hello fellow emacs users,

	I downloaded emacs from prep.ai.mit.edu on our Sun and would
	like to port the dist. to a VAX/VMS system.  I would like
	to just ftp the file over and "untar" it.  BUT, seeing that
	VMS doesn't have the tar command (or does it??), I'm stuck.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me on this problem.
