I try hard to stay within POSIX to keep my skills portable.  Things I
use regularly elsewhere and miss most on z/OS are:

find -iname
find -ls
find -print0
xargs -0
ls -l --full-time  # (different on every system.)

I wish OMVS had implemented only an ASCII kernel and let the shells
and GNU utilities diffuse in by osmosis.
