I blew most of the weekend tinkering with CMS TAR. Needed it for something and turned out that it had never been updated for certain changes in CMS. (It began in the days before I knew to use things like DATECONVERT, even before OpenVM.) Seems to be working okay at the moment, but still has some rough edges. Tar-to-UFT isn't working. (Tar-to-spool probably is, but haven't tested.)
_This is not OpenVM '__tar__'._ It's a "traditional side" thing. It's a Pipelines animal. Would help if it had GZIP or some of the other popular Unix/Linux compressors. If anyone is interested, let me know. I could use another set of eyes driving tests and cleaning-up the help. Thanks. -- R; <><
