Now, you've got me started. From:
Title: z/OS V1R13.0 UNIX System Services Command Reference
Document Number: SA22-7802-14
SHEX Shell execution environments
... Each command in a pipeline (such as "command | command") runs in a
child shell
environment, unless the pipecurrent shell option is in effect. If
pipecurrent is set on
(with set -o pipecurrent or set -P), then the last command of the pipeline
is executed
in the current shell environment. ...
Doesn't this mean that the left list of a pipeline will always run in a child
shell
environment (therefore a separate address space?), regardless of pipecurrent,
and that JES symbols of the parent shell will not be available in that child
shell
environment?
