Having just begun porting an application to VMS on the Alpha, I have
a question concerning the format of the SYMBOL_VECTOR command in
a linker options file. Of course, I don't have the new linker manual.
I realize that one now replaces macro-coded transfer vectors by
linker options of the form:

	SYMBOL_VECTOR=(routine1=PROCEDURE,routine2=PROCEDURE,...)

etc. What other values are accepted in place of PROCEDURE? For
example, I have a VAX/VMS shareable image that defines a couple of hundred
universal message symbols (ie created in a .MSG file and linked in
with the shareable image). In the linker options file, I have:

	UNIVERSAL=PROG__MSG1
	UNIVERSAL=PROG__MSG2, etc.

What is the appropriate form of SYMBOL_VECTOR command to replace this?
Thanks, one and all.

Steve
