+# vms: file(1) magic for VMS executables (experimental)
+#
+# VMS .exe formats, both VAX and AXP (Greg Roelofs, newt@uchicago.edu)
+
+# GRR 950122: I'm just guessing on these, based on inspection of the headers
+# of three executables each for Alpha and VAX architectures. The VAX files
+# all had headers similar to this:
+#
+# 00000 b0 00 30 00 44 00 60 00 00 00 00 00 30 32 30 35 ..0.D.`.....0205

+0 string \xb0\0\x30\0 VMS VAX executable
+>44032 string PK\003\004 \b, Info-ZIP SFX archive v5.12 w/decryption
+#
+# The AXP files all looked like this, except that the byte at offset 0x22
+# was 06 in some of them and 07 in others:
