If it was that easy, don't you think D OPDATA would do it and products wouldn't need to register their command character usage using a formal interface? Keep good doc. Anything "new" you define, use more than a single character to avoid conflicts (and use D OPDATA). If you really want to use a single character or don't have a choice and aren't sure if it is currently used, just type that character at the console. If you see "IEE305I ? COMMAND INVALID" (where ? = the character) then it should mean that character is not in use.
