README for VMS::SysInfo

This module lets you retrieve most of the info available via the system
service GETSYI, or the DCL lexical F$GETSYI.

perl Makefile.pl
mms
mms test

to build and test the extension. If it tests OK, then

mms install

to install it. More info is in the POD documentation in the ProcInfo.PM file.

VMS::SysInfo allows Perl programs to retrieve info about systems.  The
information it returns is pretty much equivalent to DCL's F$GETSYI function.

This module can't violate VMS system security in any way that DCL can't, so
if you can see something with F$GETSYI, you can see it with VMS::SysInfo.
If you can't in DCL, you can't here, either.
