I am writing an application (MAILbus Conversion Manager) where we want to be converting WPL, DX, and TEXT files. I thought one alternative would be to use ALL-IN-1 starter and use the COPY function (in addition to CDA Converter library and the DCF routines). I've run into a snag that I thought perhaps somebody in here could help me with. My command procedure is very simple: $ in:==test.wpl $ in:==test.dx $ allin1/noinit copy cli$in cli$out get oa$status exit How can I easily and cheaply pass oa$status back so that it can be tested by the command procedure, preferably in a symbol or logical?

You were nearly there, try GET CLI$STAT = OA$STATUS then test the
DCL symbol STAT.

This is unrelated to the symbol passing, but there was a recent note
about copying .WPL files in this context, and it was determined that
one needed an OA$INI_INIT or something to allow ALL-IN-1 to find
WPSDEF.WPL. I'm not sure why it wasn't a problem here.
