I see:
UNIX stdout stderr Assembler SYSPRINT SYSTERM IEBGENER SYSUT1 SYSPRINT Batch TMP SYSTSPRT TSO Terminal It's a real shame that: o TSO didn't originally read from/write to DDNAMES rather than inventing the idiosyncratic TGET/TPUT o DDNAME redirection wasn't made a basic capability of data management rather than implemented sporadically by various applications, often by positional entries in a second PARM. o Rexx, which internally has separate interfaces for data output and message output, has no provision for externally directing them to different DDNAMEs/descriptors. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
