In case you didn't see this is vmsnet.sources.d and comp.os.vms:

FLIST, my file and directory manager, runs under Alpha now.  FLIST is
written mostly in TPU, with a C driver.  For a variety of reasons, I
rewrote the MACRO program in C and have successfully run it under both
OpenVMS VAX and OpenVMS AXP (Alpha).

FLIST lets you view, delete, rename, copy, edit, purge, etc., files.
You can also tag groups of files and delete them all at once, etc.
It's (IMO) an invaluable utility when cleaning directories.  It
provides much of the functionality that C-SWING provides, but it's a
lot faster.  If you haven't tried it, go for it; I think you'll like
it.

To get the new FLIST, with .OBJs and .EXEs for both VAX *and* AXP,
send the following commands in the body of a mail message to
FILESERV@WKUVX1.BITNET:

SEND FLIST
SEND FILESERV_TOOLS

You can also get it via anonymous ftp from ftp.spc.edu; you'll need:

        [.MACRO32]UNZIP.EXE
        [.MACRO32.SAVESETS]FLIST.ZIP

FLIST is also available from SHSU (thanks, George).
