OK, I must be misremembering. Or maybe that was a much older version. Or, maybe, it was the old Q command. Basically my curiousity was to be able to at least review SPOOL datasets (perhaps copying them) directly on z/Linux to avoid any sort of CPU "cost" on the z/OS system. Well, if I even had z/Linux, which I don't. I just sometimes ask off-the-wall curiousity questions. Management here is on a major quest to decrease z/OS CPU usage to save money. Too bad they don't look at all the <elided> software we have from MS which could possibly be replaced with FOSS products. Especially OpenOffice vs. MS Office. Or Oracle with EnterpriseDB. -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
