To all you UniVerse experts out there.

A site I know is moving from UniData on VMS to UniVerse on UNIX.  Don't ask
why, they just decided that was the path they wanted to go down.  Anyhow,
they've got used to the ability in UniData to LIST filename ALL and see
everything.  They're a bit surprised that this doesn't work in UniVerse.
Any ideas?

Of course we could write them a BASIC program called LIST that scans the
command for the keyword ALL and if it finds it, works out what ALL means in
the context of that file before invoking the real UniVerse LIST with a
modified command, but I'd like to exhaust other options first.

Cheers,

  ALL

  Syntax

  ... filename ALL

  Description

  The UniQuery ALL keyword displays every data (D-type) attribute defined in
the dictionary of filename. ALL does not display virtual (V-type)
attributes.

  Example

  In the following example, the ALL keyword lists every D-type attribute in
the INVENTORY file:

  :LIST INVENTORY ALL
