[comp.os.vms] Disabling RECALL

In the VAX Professional (October/1987) there was a routine to manipulate
the command recall buffer.  The options are to:
        LIST    - List the recall buffer (can be greater than 20 commands)
        SAVE    - Save the buffer to SYS$LOGIN:SAVE_CMDS.TXT
        RESTORE - Restore the buffer from the saved file
        FLUSH   - Empty out the buffer
        BOTH    - Save, then flush the buffer

I find the routines very helpful.  Note, however, that this will probably
not work under VMS5.0, but it sure works fine under VMS4.6.
Note that some parts of this require CMEXEC or CMKRNL (restore, flush).

If you are interested in the source (in MACRO) let me know, and I'll
post it.
