Not all of us like messing around with the convoluted USS path, that's
why.
Time to learn new tricks ? <vbg>
But seriously, it is not only matter of big HFS and managing (long)
pathnames. It is also (unclear) "unpacking" hfs files into MVS datasets
using GIMUNZIP.
BTW: I downloaded XML Toolkit. Approx. 650MB. First step was to unpax it
into HFS files - at least another 650MB. Then GIMUNZIP it into MVS
datasets. Another 650MB! Then perform SMP/E RECEIVE - from MVS datasets
on dasd to SMP/E relfiles - that means another MVS datasets on DASD.
So, you need *FOUR TIMES* more than package size (assuming no
compression and no deletes during the process).
It *could* be simpler, but it would be against SMP/E policy: to keep
things as complex as possible.
