Forgot to mention, my first thought for discarding the record was READ:
specs read select 1 1-* 1
Then I decided it would probably consume two records on the primary
I was so astonished by this one I thought maybe it was an old behavior
enshrined in BatchPipeWorks, but no, it's the same in the very latest on
CMS. I wanted to replace selected lines in one file with lines from
another, sequentially, so I wrote:
specs select 1 1-* 1
Surprise! The whole file
