VAXSCAN
VAX SCAN is a native mode high level language designed for text
processing that operates under the VMS Operating System. VAX SCAN
programs can invoke and be invoked by routines written in other VMS
languages as well as many Run-Time Library routines. This is the
complete VAX SCAN system, sources and all.
Architecture: VAX, Alpha
