   <description>...moreover the listed file names missing the first one or two chars sometimes, while the files are properly collected by the openvms related functions.

The problems is most probably caused by the fact that netrw does not have support for VMS paths at all. </description>

   <description>netrw is a nice interactive feature, but it's not working on VMS.

Is it complicated to make this work?

:e user_disk:[rsferencik]
    - shows the netrw header
    - gives the following message (but not an error)
        &quot;~/&quot; Illegal file name

$ define my_dir user_disk:[rsferencik]
...
:e my_dir:
    - shows the netrw header
    - lists the files of user_disk:[rsferencik], but the paths are corrupted
    - gives a similar message
        &quot;my_dir:&quot; Illegal file name
    - but all this only if there are no concealed logicals involved
