I'm inclined to concur with that assessment. So next time I'm requested to provide doc which resides in UNIX files, I suppose I should ask, since TRSMAIN balks at UNIX files, whether they prefer:
o a Tersed pax archive (pax will archive to Classic data sets) or o a Tersed DFDSS unloaded HFS. First line, in turn will need to escalate the question. I'd better not be in a hurry. Or do readers of IBM-MAIN have some insights into the decision? -- gil -- StorageTek INFORMATION made POWERFUL ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
