The code linked in the article build on VMS with 3 tiny changes:

    63     fconnect(inwords, 'vfile_ words.txt');
->
    63     open(inwords, 'vfile_ words.txt', old);

    75     fclose(inwords);
->
    75     close(inwords);

   108     chosenword := wordlist[trunc(clock) mod MAX_WORD_INDEX];
->
   108     chosenword := wordlist[clock mod MAX_WORD_INDEX];
