[Info-vax] product not installing

[Steven Schweda]

   I assume that this is yet another hopeless exercise, but
I'll give it a try.

   You logged into _what_?  As _user_ "system"?  You noticed
_what_?  That VMS doesn't include Info-ZIP  programs?  That
they can be downloaded?  That there are copies near the C
compiler kit?

   Even if that's true, your Web search for, say:
      vax unzip.exe
found nothing useful?

   _What_ is?

   Who doesn't want whom to give out what why?

   You guess that who gives out what to whom?

   Huh?  About _what_, exactly, are you talking?  As usual,
showing actual commands with their actual output can be more
helpful than vague descriptions or interpretations.

   Huh?  About _what_, exactly, are you talking?

   Perhaps you should guess and suppose less, and use
pronouns less.  You may know what you mean, but the
non-psychics in your audience may not.  If you expect useful
answers, then asking intelligible questions may help.  If
you're only blithering (blathering?), then you're poisoning
the well from which you may later wish to draw water.

   Like water off a duck's back.  Do you have some kind of
mental disability which renders you unable to form a clear,
useful question or problem description?
