[Simh] DECWrite for OpenVMS Alpha?

I see that the hobbyist license PAKs include DECWrite. I'm pretty sure
the installation files are not included in the downloads, though.

Does anyone have an installation file or media they could share? Alpha
preferred. I have two Alpha systems (DS-10 and PWS.) Both have CD-ROM
drives but no tape drives, with OpenVMS 8.3 installed and running..

For usability testing and comparisons I could settle for a VAX version
that will run on the SimH MicroVAX 3900 emulation with OpenVMS 7.3, if
necessary.

I assume HP no longer actually supports this software so there's not
much point in trying to buy the media from them.

Thanks for any suggestions.
