B.3.2.2 Compiling `gawk' Dynamic Extensions on VMS
..................................................
-Dynamic extensions need to be compiled with the same compiler options
-for floating point, pointer size, and symbol name handling as were used
-to compile `gawk' itself. Alpha and Itanium should use IEEE floating
-point. The pointer size is 32 bits, and the symbol name handling
-should be exact case with CRC shortening for symbols longer than 32
-bits.
+The extensions that have been ported to VMS can be built using one of
+the following commands.
+
+ $ MMS/DESCRIPTION=[.vms]descrip.mms extensions
+
+or:
+
+ $ MMK/DESCRIPTION=[.vms]descrip.mms extensions
+
+ `gawk' uses `AWKLIBPATH' as either an environment variable or a
+logical name to find the dynamic extensions.
