Why not?  I provided a complete Introduction to DCL class, equivalent
to that provided by HP, over a period of 3 weeks to 6 of my colleagues
in August last year.

Despite the availability of other script languages such as Perl, Rexx
or Bash on OpenVMS, I would still regard DCL to definitely be a
prerequisite to proficiency on the OpenVMS platform, whether you are a
developer, DBA or system manager.

Cheers!
