Most "historic" UNIX commands are both short and lower case. Making them faster and easier to type on a KSR33 or other "teletype" terminal. Another thing, IMO, is that z/OS UNIX "suffers" for a lact of X-client applications. So "point'n'click" is difficult to implement. But I don't really believe that IBM is positioning z/OS UNIX as a "end user experience" product. Just as an "back office infrastructure" product for things like WAS, CICS Web Services, and so on, to use. > > > Tony Thigpen > > -- We all have skeletons in our closet.
