[bit.listserv.games-l] Zoo.EXE

Due to the recent acquisition of Tetris for the VAX, I've also
received the ZOO translator. There is a problem though, I am
unable to get it to work. In order to use it, you either must
type RUN ZOO.EXE filename or $ZOO X filename    The problem is
that the VAX/VMS system I work on ALWAYS gives me this message..

        % VMS-
                ENTER WITH FEWER PARAMETERS /X FILENAME/

Without the carriage return mind you that splits this whole thing.
We're running VMS 5.0-2 if that helps...and HELP!

                Thanx in advance..Ace

Could someone PLEASE vms-dump zoo.exe to: PWEXLER@ARIZRVAX?

(Not to this account!)

Thanks!

Many thanx to all who helped on the ZOO.EXE problem I was having. As
I have discovered, one must create a line your LOGIN.COM with the path
name of the executable file. Ie: disk$???:[username.directory]zoo.exe

In my case, I did not include the path name but rather did :==$zoo.exe
THIS was the problem, and I thank all who helped.
