To my knowledge no one has attempted this before.  I'm not too familiar
with VMS, but IIRC it is a totally different OS unlike UNIX or Windows.
 VMS is certainly not a supported platform currently, but it will be
interesting to discover what it will take to support the OS.

Here are some questions to get started:

1.) Is it command-line based?  Does it support scripting in any form?
2.) What would the build sequence look like for a simple hello-world.c
program?
3.) Is there a make tool or native build tool of some kind?

Thanks,
