+.SH NAME
+perlvos \- Perl for Stratus OpenVOS
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
+This file contains notes for building perl on the Stratus OpenVOS
+operating system. Perl is a scripting or macro language that is
+popular on many systems. See perlbook for a number of good books
+on Perl.
+.PP
+These are instructions for building Perl from source. This version of
+Perl requires the dynamic linking support that is found in OpenVOS
+Release 17.1 and thus is not supported on OpenVOS Release 17.0 or
+earlier releases.
+.PP
+If you are running VOS Release 14.4.1 or later, you can obtain a
+pre-compiled, supported copy of perl by purchasing the GNU Tools
+product from Stratus Technologies.
+.SH "BUILDING PERL FOR OPENVOS"
+.IX Header "BUILDING PERL FOR OPENVOS"
+To build perl from its source code on the Stratus V Series platform
+you must have OpenVOS Release 17.1.0 or later, GNU Tools Release
+3.5 or later, and the C/POSIX Runtime Libraries.
+.PP
+Follow the normal instructions for building perl; e.g, enter bash, run
+the Configure script, then use "gmake" to build perl.
+.SH "INSTALLING PERL IN OPENVOS"
+.IX Header "INSTALLING PERL IN OPENVOS"
+.IP 1. 4
+After you have built perl using the Configure script, ensure that you
+have modify and default write permission to \f(CW\*(C`>system>ported\*(C'\fR and
+all subdirectories. Then type
+.Sp
+.Vb 1
+\& gmake install
+.Ve
+.IP 2. 4
+While there are currently no architecture-specific extensions or
+modules distributed with perl, the following directories can be
+used to hold such files (replace the string VERSION by the
+appropriate version number):
+.Sp
+.Vb 1
+\& >system>ported>lib>perl5>VERSION>i786
+.Ve
+.IP 3. 4
+Site-specific perl extensions and modules can be installed in one of
+two places. Put architecture-independent files into:
+.Sp
+.Vb 1
+\& >system>ported>lib>perl5>site_perl>VERSION
+.Ve
+.Sp
+Put site-specific architecture-dependent files into one of the
+following directories:
+.Sp
+.Vb 1
+\& >system>ported>lib>perl5>site_perl>VERSION>i786
+.Ve
+.IP 4. 4
+You can examine the \f(CW@INC\fR variable from within a perl program
+to see the order in which Perl searches these directories.
+.SH "USING PERL IN OPENVOS"
+.IX Header "USING PERL IN OPENVOS"
+.SS "Restrictions of Perl on OpenVOS"
+.IX Subsection "Restrictions of Perl on OpenVOS"
+This port of Perl version 5 prefers Unix-style, slash-separated
+pathnames over OpenVOS-style greater-than-separated pathnames.
+OpenVOS-style pathnames should work in most contexts, but if you have
+trouble, replace all greater-than characters by slash characters.
+Because the slash character is used as a pathname delimiter, Perl
+cannot process OpenVOS pathnames containing a slash character in a
+directory or file name; these must be renamed.
+.PP
+This port of Perl also uses Unix-epoch date values internally.
+As long as you are dealing with ASCII character string
+representations of dates, this should not be an issue. The
+supported epoch is January 1, 1980 to January 17, 2038.
+.PP
+See the file pod/perlport.pod for more information about the OpenVOS
+port of Perl.
+.SH "TEST STATUS"
+.IX Header "TEST STATUS"
+A number of the perl self-tests fails for various reasons; generally
+these are minor and due to subtle differences between common
+POSIX-based environments and the OpenVOS POSIX environment. Ensure
+that you conduct sufficient testing of your code to guarantee that it
+works properly in the OpenVOS environment.
+.SH "SUPPORT STATUS"
+.IX Header "SUPPORT STATUS"
+I'm offering this port "as is". You can ask me questions, but I
+can't guarantee I'll be able to answer them. There are some
+excellent books available on the Perl language; consult a book
+seller.
+.PP
+If you want a supported version of perl for OpenVOS, purchase the
+OpenVOS GNU Tools product from Stratus Technologies, along with a
+support contract (or from anyone else who will sell you support).
