Here's one from the last TOPS-10 system I have access to;  one system I
used to work on had some stuff which was linked in the late 60s and unchanged,
but since those machines belong to the US Govt. and I no longer work for
the contractor which helped maintain them I no longer have any access to
the systems to check.  So here 'tis:

.dir sys:inuse.exe

INUSE   EXE    12  <155>   29-Jul-71    (1)     DSKB:   [1,4]

.r inuse
