        /* Translate "UNIX" wildcard file names to OpenVMS names.*/
        /* Define as a foreign command and provide the name as   */
        /* an argument.                                          */

        #include <unixlib.h>

        int print_name(char *, int);
        int main(int argc, char *argv[])
        {
            int number_found;           /* number of files found */

            printf("Translating: %s\n", argv[1]);

            number_found = decc$to_vms(argv[1], print_name, 1, 0);
            printf("%d files found\n", number_found);
        }

        /* action routine that prints name and type on each line */

        int print_name(char *name, int type)
        {
            if (type == DECC$K_DIRECTORY)
                printf("directory: %s\n", name);
            else if (type == DECC$K_FOREIGN)
                printf("remote non-VMS: %s\n", name);
            else
                printf("file:        %s\n", name);

        /* Translation continues as long as success status is returned */
            return (1);
        }

      This example shows how to use the decc$to_vms routine in
      VSI C. It takes a UNIX style file specification argument
      and displays, in OpenVMS file specification format, the name of
      each existing file that matches it.
