... and if you have built for your system, ask Google for the latest
sources, you can see the contents of a BACKUP save set on non-VMS
systems as well:

Usage:  ./vmsbackup [OPTION]... [FILE]...

  Reads and optionally unpacks OpenVMS BACKUP savesets

Main operation mode:
         -t      --list         List files in saveset
         -x      --extract      Extract files
