I am writing a TSO command processor. One option is to direct output to a dataset. In support of this, for new datasets, I would like to support the parms LIKE(existing.ds.name) and USING(attr-list). I can see the DALLIKE key for the LIKE parameter. I cannot see anything that relates to the USING(). I can find something in IKJDAIR for USING() but not for LIKE(). From reading about the ATTRIB command in the TSO/E book, it seems that this creates a DD statement with the given name. Does this mean that I should use the DALDCBDD key to implement USING(...)?
