in executable form until its source code has been merged with that of the
portable version. The source code in C, compilable on both VAX/VMS and a
variety of other systems, will eventually be released.
Files in this archive are:
readme.1st You're reading this
install.doc Explains how to transfer zoo to VAX/VMS and install it
vmszoo.doc Describes VMS-specific features and restrictions
zoo.exe Executable zoo for VAX/VMS, uses shared library
zoobig.exe Like zoo.exe, but no shared library, hence more portable
bilf.exe File conversion utility, uses shared library
bilfbig.exe Like bilf.exe, but no shared library, hence more portable
bilf.c Source code in C for bilf.exe and bilfbig.exe
The full zoo manual is not included in this archive because I'm assuming
that if you are ready to use zoo on VMS, you already have the manual from
some other version.

Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
