... and also in the history of MVS and OS/390. and Lizette Koehler said really really tongue in cheek this (and confusing a person who replied on her post): "And IEFBR14 is more that return on R14. It does stuff. Just look how big it is." and I said earlier: 'IEFBR14 is just a lazy program setting a RC=00 and nothing else.' Hmmm, I *always* ( ;-D ) wanted to sign IEFBR14 with a (program) digital certificate with RACF, but PDS datasets (at least the SYS1.LINKLIB) are not supported for this stunt. <grin> Has a patent been taken out on IEFBR14 (or its queer position in MVS, OS390, z/OS)? If not, I want to register it, but I am too broke. ;-D Groete / Greetings Elardus Engelbrecht ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
