environment here is z/os 1.13

(1) In the smp/e  “cross-zone query”    screen  (panelid GIMQU2PO), if you 
leave BOTH the  “Entry Type”  and “Entry Name”  fields blank, and hit enter, 
you get a long (757 long) laundry list of Entry Types.  Where can one go, what 
book/source consult to find out what these things are?  A lot are obvious and I 
know already:  ASSEM,  SRC,  MAC,  MOD,  LMOD,  SRC  ;  other, I can guess:  
BOOK,  FONT, etc.  and I’ve figured out on my own that a lot of the last 3 or 4 
letters  in many entries are refrences to a language:  ENU for english, FRA for 
french, FIN for finnish etc etc.  But what is/are (e.g.)  BSIND?  AIX1?  OS23?  
  What is USER* and how does USER2 differ from USER5?  what is/are UNIX1 thru 
UNIX5 and how do they differ from HFS?  I have RTFM-ed the smp/e  user guide, 
reference, and commands book, to no avail.

Related to the foregoing, and
(2)  Again, in the smp/e  dialog “query” context,  How does one access the info 
for some of those critters you find in Unix System Services?  E.g., in the /bin 
directory, there’s an executable  called   “zcat”  .   when I try to do the 
cross-zone query  using  an entry type of “HFS” for an “entry name = zcat”, I 
get no hit. same-same for UNIX1 UNIX2 UNIX3 UNIX4 UNIX5,  (the other ‘entities’ 
that struck me as possibly being relevant, given that they are called ‘unix*’  
…. ).
How is one supposed to know what entity type to use for Unix system Services 
stuff?  (java stuff shows up in entry type HFS, but routine executables, DLLs 
don’t seem to) .

any light that can be shed will be welcomed ….
