Hi,
In VMS DCL I can do:
.... etc....
$ exit
The $deck $eod aren't needed it will work as above
cat > post_news.txt <<EOD
Hi,
In Unix I can do:
sh csh ksh etc...
and many many other things that leave DCL looking brain dead
ie just look at for looks in sh/ksh , DCL for ? , nothing !
.... etc....
EOD
