>I'd be happier with dispensing with AVGREC entirely and being allowed to code:
SPACE=(1,(1M,1000K)) * SI (decimal) prefixes, please.
Ohh, no. Please not another new syntax. The
Early-morning-after-heavy-New-Years-Eve-party design of AVGREC is stupid enough.
The first subparameter of SPACE= specifies the *unit*: number of bytes (aka
block), tracks (TRK), or cylinders (CYL). I will never understand how IBM could
think AVGREC is the way to go.
Why not just add KB, MB, GB, TB, ... to TRK and CYL as space unit
specification? SPACE=(GB,(1,3)) gives you 1GB primary and 3GB secondary. Simple
to understand and remember.
