This directory is full of useful utilities both for VMS users and
for VMS system managers.  Included are DELIVER (a mail message
handling utility), PATCH (for patching source), MODATT (for
modifying file attributes), TC2TT (to translate termcap entries to
VMS TERMTABLE format), TAR for VMS, VMS_SHARE file packer (for
distribution through electronic mail), and many other tidbits of
information from the Internet.

There is so much good stuff in here that you should spend a few
hours just going through the directory and seeing what is here.
Many of these utilities you may already have but they are the latest
versions so now is the perfect time to upgrade.  There are also many
text files containing VMS gems which tell you how to modify your
BookReader library, convert your login to an executable, or even how
to do I/O redirection from C.
