Another approach might be to construct a name that has some meaningful info about what it does. When you base it on time, you can't find that back in the code. When the added pipelines are really identical (like in a recursive filter) I am happy to have them named the same. > It can be real hard to find a publication number nowadays. Looking at: Especially since you're using the Runtime Library, the Author's Edition is probably the best source. The revision codes alert you of things that are not in the z/VM 6.3 indoor plumbing. > It was a novice mistake, found more by inspection than by tracing.
