How do you feel about z/OS, which is equally case sensitive? Would you support an RFE to make STOW, BLDL, DYNALLOC, Catalog Services, JCL, TSO, and the RTLs of various languages case insensitive? (I'm not volunteering to submit such an RFE.)
(BTW, what was the problem in the SHARK TANK article at the head of this thread? I have no familiarity with CICS operations so I couldn't guess what the command should have been, nor what the naive operator was attempting to enter. Was it a matter of case sensitivity?) -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
