  Copying Bookreader Files from OpenVMS to Tru64 UNIX
  Systems

  To copy books or bookshelf files from an OpenVMS to a
  Tru64 UNIX system, first make sure the file protections on
  the OpenVMS system are set to WORLD:READ. For example:

  $  SET  PROTECTION=W:R  FILENAME.DECW$BOOK

  Then enter one of the following commands on the Tru64
  UNIX system:

  *   DECnet copy of a book -

      %  dcp  -c  -i  node::'device:[directory]filename.decw$book'  .

      The  -i flag makes sure that the file is copied as a binary
      image, and the  -c flag automatically converts the file-
      name to lowercase, eliminates the version number and
      semicolon, and changes the dollar sign to an underscore.

  *   DECnet copy of a bookshelf -

      %  dcp  -c  node::'device:[directory]filename.decw$bookshelf'  .

      ASCII is the default output when you copy files from
      OpenVMS systems using      dcp.  The -c flag automatically
      converts the filename to lowercase, eliminates the version
      number and semicolon, and changes the dollar sign to an
      underscore.

  *   TCP/IP copy -

      %  rcp  node::'device:[directory]filename.decw$book'  filename.decw_book

  For all commands, enclose the device, directory, and file
  name between apostrophes.
