The only thing I know I can do is to use 'type filename' and log that to a file 
attached to simh. That would take a very long time though. People tell me 
kermit in vms can be a pain.

  One approach would be to simply use telnet client that can dump a session to 
a file or copy it to the clipboard, and then inside VMS do something like "COPY 
Q.TXT TXB1:"

  If you want to go down the Kermit path you’ll need Kermit for the VMS side 
and you’ll need to find a way to get it into your simulated environment.

  I don't want to get involved with FTP. That's setting up tcpip in VMS and 
lately I've been having terrible problems with that. I have set that aside. For 
now anyway. IDK about the old VMSs but openvms is new to me and I don't want to 
go too far too much. Thank's for the idea. My linux does have kermit. Is there 
a way to do this without involving tcp/ip protocols?

    How about FTP?

      Hi Bill, 

      Kermit is definitely robust enough to do what you want. You could always 
do the “type the file to your terminal and copy paste,” dance too. That would 
work for text files particularly. ON OS X at least there’s a way to save 
terminal output to a text file as well.
      I don’t know about CDs. I’d think that might be a bit of overkill for 
what you want, Kermit’s pretty easy to set up.
      Best,
      Zack.

            I have been studying the best way to copy from a vax simulator with 
openvms to a linux host, text files. The Docs look like telnet and kermit are 
the way to do it. So is there not a device like ISO that I can copy TOO? I 
wouldn't think because cdrom is RO after all. and 'set rq writeenable' isn't 
working nor is anything to do with cdrom working. 

            There may be several ways to do this. I am not concerned so much 
about binary files as several .txt files. Am I on the right track with telnet 
and kermit from those who have attempted and done this?

        Bill
