After being deluged by requests for ARC for VMS, I am posting the following
to the general info_vax area.  Feel free to distribute this to anyone who
wants it.

        ARC.UUE      - UUencoded executable of ARC.EXE
        CVTARC.UUE   - UUencoded executable of CVTARC.EXE
        ARC_COM.SHAR - Shar file containing the .COM files to build the package
        ARC_H.SHAR   - Shar file containing the .H   files
        ARC_C.SHAR*  - Shar file containing the .C   files
                       You should get 19 parts in this set

To run this stuff, you must define ARC and CVTARC as foreign commands.
CVTARC will convert a fixed length file to stream_lf as required by arc.
You will typically need to run this after downloading an arc file using
Kermit or Vaxnet.

eg.  $ CVTARC :== $SYS$LOGIN:CVTARC
     $ CVTARC U input_arc_file output_arc_file     ! convert to stream_lf
     $ ARC :== $SYS$LOGIN:ARC
     $ ARC -L output_arc_file

Sorry, but I don't have the source to CVTARC.

        Enjoy!
