I assume sufficient interest will make the "indefinite" period a "definite" one! :) I also assume that this statement might hold true for other compiler vendors - sufficient interest in VAX/VMS would cause them to generate a port. However, I don't think this statement would necessarily be cause to announce multi-vendor support of VAX/VMS just yet! -- LMTAS - "Our Brand Means Quality"
