[Info-vax] How to build WASD on a VAX (VMS 7.3)

[JKB]

	Hello,

	I'm trying to build WASD (1151) on a VAX. I have installed Compaq C
	compiler that runs fine :

$ CC/version
Compaq C V6.4-005 on OpenVMS VAX V7.3    

	but when I try to build WASD, CC returns an error and I understand
	that it cannot use 64 bits integers.

$ set def disk$opt:[wasd.wasd_root.install]
$ @install
%DCL-S-SPAWNED, process BERTRAND_1 spawned
%DCL-S-ATTACHED, terminal now attached to process BERTRAND_1
...
Package executables must be built.

  0. skip this step
  1. compiling from source, then linking
  2. linking (separate package) object modules

Select build method [0]: 1

This executes the package demonstration procedure, allowing the basic package
to be evaluated or checked.  You may run this at any time to again check the
package for basic functionality using @WASD_ROOT:[INSTALL]DEMO.COM

Execute the demonstration procedure? [NO]:

	This version of WASD seems to be the last release that supports VAX.
	But which compiler can build WASD ?

	Best regards,

	JB
