You mean VAX - which implies DecAda - and not a more modern OpenVMS?

For compiling you won't need that much scripting. DecAda - like most
Ada's handle dependencies automaticly so compile is just:

acs load *.ada
acs compile *
acs link Main.ada

However on large systems you might want to break sources down into
several libraries - in which case you also need

acs merge /Keep *

and you should create your libraries with

acs create library /Large

For all commands you get extra help with

help acs create library /Large

But I guess you know that allready. And from there it is just a matter
of a few dcl or mms scripts. And to answer your questions: There are no
common files - the (dcl) scripts I use are highly specific and won't
help you.
