+1.  If there were a /proc/self/home, I'd be able to code JCL to

naming conventions.  (There are a couple things wrong with
coding "DD PATH='/u/&SYSUID/'".)

Would this be better done by mounting the JES spool as a UNIX FS
(permissions subject to security), or with an OUTPUT JCL option
to direct specified data sets to the existing UNIX FS?
