I can capture some messages issued by some IPCS commands, but I think you are
100% correct, it depends on the method used to issue the message. And, I
believe it is TPUT messages you can't capture, not sure about that.
I do know, for example, I can do a "LIST address LEN(xxx) AREA NOPRINT
TERMINAL" and if I do an OUTTRAP("LIST.") before and an OUTTRAP("OFF") after, I
can capture the "listed" storage into the stem, LIST., and then process it
myself, if I needed to.
I also know that I can do an OUTTRAP before and after a "VERBEXIT DFHPD650
NOPRINT TERMINAL" IPCS command and capture its output into a stem.

I think it depends on what method IBM uses to produce the message. I do not
think you can capture a TPUT message and suppress it.
