Move your VAX SCAN environment to Alpha or Integrity

VAX SCAN is a direct port of VAX SCAN to OpenVMS on Alpha or Integrity.

Like VAX SCAN for the VAX/VMS platform, VAX SCAN for Alpha or Integrity is a high level language designed for text processing that runs on OpenVMS. In addition to the commonplace string operators such as concatenation, substring, extraction and comparison, VAX SCAN has powerful constructs for matching complex text patterns and sorting. These capabilities make VAX SCAN particularly useful for building filters, translators, extractors, pre-processors, and parsers.

VAX SCAN can use the Language-Sensitive Editor (LSE) and with Source Code Analyzer (SCA), to further aid in the development of programs. VAX SCAN is implemented based on the lexical and semantic modules from the VAX SCAN Compiler, which generates an intermediate representation of the SCAN modules in ANSI C code. Because of this, VAX SCAN requires an installed DEC C compiler. VAX SCAN modules can be linked with modules written in other OpenVMS languages to produce an executable image that can be executed by the OpenVMS RUN command.

It looks like VAX SCAN. Original VAX SCAN modules can be linked with modules written in other OpenVMS languages to produce an executable image that can be executed by the OpenVMS RUN command.
VAX SCAN provides support for error diagnostics to the Language-Sensitive Editor (LSE) cross-reference information to the Source Code Analyzer (SCA), to further aid in the development of programs.
