What is the NULL device under VMS? I've seen references to NL:, but under VMS 4.7, 5.0, and 5.0-2 it isn't defined. What (shipped) startup file has the definition? Thanks for any help.

Thanks for any help. > The null device is NLA0:, aka NL: (same device.) It's assembled into the exec, so it's always there.
