Peter,

Thanks for your earlier info and corrections.

But everyone, PLEASE resist more discussions of the TLA on this thread.

Re: BPXOINIT - do you find it surprising that in z/OS Unix that all
processes don't inherit from pid=1 ?   This is a PITA, since the
environment variables established by BPXINIT will not be set in, say,
a batch job that gets dubbed.   How many places should, say, TZ
settings be maintained?   How should vendor applications that use z/OS
Unix services get the installation defined environment variables?
