Chris, <My last post on this topic.> You missed my point on this. 1 - As Mark Z. stated, I am not claiming that USS is an "official" designation for z/OS UNIX, I am stating rather that it should be usable in those places where it's meaning is clear. 2 - Mr. Metz, has repeatedly harped on how USS is NOT z/OS UNIX, and never shall be, yet, he is quite happy to refer to "z/OS" as Z/OS, and the use of the TMP in Batch as "Batch TSO." On the latter, he used the fact that IBM doc uses that nomenclature (which I don't recall seeing, and searches in Book Manager haven't found any yet either) as justification for using the term. If IBM doc is suitable for him in that case, it should be in others. Wayne Driscoll Product Developer JME Software LLC NOTE: All opinions are strictly my own.
