Yeah, that's what I said: I would use LISTCAT, but it won't work on
uncatalogued datasets. And I see I left something out: I'm writing a REXX.
I can do it in 3.4, but there are too many datasets; I'm tired of doing it
manually, especially as I suppose I'll need the process more than once.
...Although come to think of it I can use 3.4 in a REXX, too; DSLIST, is
that the service? I don't think I've ever done that before, but I guess it
would solve my problem.
As I just told someone else, I've heard about CBT for years but never pulled
anything from it: I assume clients will be reluctant (or more) to put
unknown software on their expensive mainframes. I'm looking for plain
vanilla tools.
On the other hand, I've been at sites where they use certain CBT functions,
and CBT is after all well known. Maybe if I ask my local systems programmer
he'll say "sure, we don't mind using CBT stuff". Guess I should at least
ask.

That's not a LISTCAT function. There are lots of choices on the CBT tape,
e.g., VTOC, and there's always ISPF 3.4.

I'm gonna kick myself, I just know I am, but if I know the answer to this
already I can't dredge it up. I want to list all the datasets on a
particular DASD volume. I'd use LISTCAT LVL('hlq'), but these are not
catalogued. Where's the TSO command for that?
