HFTS, Utilities, do-everything utility for monitoring and controlling VMSAThe Functional Testing Suite (FTS) is a do-everything utility forEmonitoring and controlling a VMS system. The philosophy here is thatBeverytime I want to do something under VMS, and there's no commandDto do it, I'll write it myself and add it to FTS. It started out asBa monitor for images which I didn't have source code for (like UCX8applications) and grew into a sort of grab-bag of hacks.GFTS is generally distributed in VMS_SHARE format. To unpack the sourceCcode, execute (via DCL) the distribution file (eg. $ @FTS012.SHAR).@To build the FTS executable, us the command "$ @MAKE". The onlyFfile required to actually use FTS is FTS.EXE which should be installedEas a foreign command (ie. "$ FTS :== $disk:[dir]FTS.EXE"). If anyone@out there wants to put together a VMS help file, god bless them.BThe currently supported help system is the source code, especiallythe file FTS_PARSE.CLD.EI have compiled FTS 1.2 under VMS versions V5.1-1, V5.5-2, and FT6.0.(Without problems)IWARNING!!! FTS is an rather brutish program which may very well do nastyEthings to your system, least of all crash it. Don't use this programGunless you think you know what you're doing!
