  "VMS File System Internals" by Kirby McCoy documents the VMS file system
fairly well.  Published by Digital Press, order number EY-F575E-DP.

  I also ran across a program called GETVMS somewhere, which could do
a directory list of a VMS filesystem directory, or read data from a file.
I can't remember where I got it originally.
