I have used hobbyist licensed systems (Deathrow) for personal experi-
mentation and have therefore experience with the system I would not
have otherwise.

A concrete example would be my C++ templates for error handling of
Posix calls.  There are #ifdefs in it for VMS and the HP C++ com-
piler.

I refer to the PosixCall.h++ file in the download section at the
bottom.


P.S. This blog does not contain the complete library as I have it
now.
