Sceptre 5.5

This area contains Sceptre 5.5 amendment notices. To use any of these amendments, the relevant file should be downloaded to a local disk, uploaded to VME, the AMENDMODULE parameters merged into the appropriate patch file and the file executed as described in the comments at the start of the patch file.

The amendments contained in this file area have all had their local tags, indicated by a £ (pound sign) replaced with a # (hash), so that the files will only contain ASCII (7-bit) characters. The transfer method used to move these files onto your VME system should be configured so that hash (#) characters in the ASCII source files are translated to pound (£) characters in the EBCDIC destination.

Note: The majority of the files contain only text and selecting them will cause your browser to show the file contents rather than saving them to your local drive. If you wish to save the contents of the file, you can either:

  • Select "Save As" from your browser's File menu, when viewing the file contents.
  • Click with the right mouse button on the link contained on this page and select "Save Target As" from the pop-up menu that appears.
