How, then, does one create an empty member? What does one use as the
argument of the WRITE? I had assumed (but I haven't tested this)
that I could do this with IEBGENER:
//STEP EXEC PGM=IEBGENER
//SYSUT2 DD DISP=MOD,DSN=&SYSUID.PDS(MEMBER)
//SYSUT1 DD DUMMY
What does IEBGENER use as the argument for the WRITE (PUT? QSAM?)
that you aver it issues.
