An aside re SPEs: back in the early 80s, IBM released an SPE for a CMS utility. The original code was on the order of 500 lines; the SPE was something like 3500. Melinda Varian (whom some of you may recall) posted to VMSHARE-the VM-oriented BBS of the era-a review of the change, which had a number of significant problems, concluding: "This is small? This is programming?? This is an enhancement???"
I was just starting out, but it solidly cemented the meaning of "SPE" for me! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
