Thanks, but what I really need is the documentation for the callable
libreadline library, from a C programmer's perspective.

Much of the readline functionality is already built in to OpenVMS, and
I just need to make the library calls that look like the ones that LINUX
has.

I am also looking for information on how LINUX KERNEL OPLOCKS work from
the C programmer's perspective.  OpenVMS has equivalent cluster wide
functionality.

I have SAMBA 2.2.0 now compiling and linking on OpenVMS with only a few
patches to fix type mis-matches and such.
