If I remember well: RAC writes its output to disk as RACF OUTPUT A and
then the disk file is typed at the console.  I inherited a RACFAST
tool from Steve Swift that avoids this detour via the A-disk.  So, if
the use of a RACF command is more than an example but key: use
FILELIST first.

Another side note: when inserting a > stage to collect the data
flowing through the pipe, remember that null records are possible in a
pipe, but not on disk.  I.e. the null records will not end in the disk
file.   Use "|PAD 1 x|> fn ft fm" to have these null records in the
file too.
