OMI is a DCL application for (Open)VMS which can be used to create menu structures and handle all I/O for all kind of interactive procedures. Even though OMI is written completely in DCL, it is a full programming environment, with client/server support (unattended modules using mailboxes to communicate), a full-blown calculator with floating point support, string encryption and more! OMI reads menu files (file_name.MNU), and builds a window on character cell terminals (good old VTxxx) or emulaters, in which the user can enter inputs, jump to submenus, and call OMI modules to perform predefined tasks, but using menu options and internal commands. OMI is around for a few years already and available on HP's OpenVMS Freeware CD's. It works on all (Open)VMS version since 1.5 (AXP) and 5.2 (VAX) on VAX, Alpha and Itanium processors.
