Barbara, it took you some time to compose this reply. Bear with me, I'll need some, too.
And be assured, I'm not taking this personal in any way. I'm more open to z/OS UNIX than many others and I tend to stand up for it sometimes. In parallel to growing up with z/OS UNIX as of 1994, I was learning much about the design UNIX operating systems. This helps me to understand why many things are like they are in z/OS UNIX, *but* there still are many things I consider quite ugly (btw, there are at least as many ugly things in MVS). Will respond to you statements later. -- Peter Hunkeler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
