Could someone tell me how to run a C program which takes command line 
arguments on VAX/VMS? I have checked the FAQ about openVMS and tried the 
instructions. But I couldn't get it work. I don't have an openVMS mannual.  
Please help me!

My program is like:

/* myprog.c */
  
  main(argn, **argv)
  {
  
     ...

  }

If run on Unix or DOS, I could type something like

  myprog -lu abcd

How to run it on VMS?

I'd appreciate your help!
