If you have PIPEs available the PIPE LISTCAT is an excellent tool to use if
you only want the dataset name, and optionally the dataset type.

All languages have glitches, especially C. Certainly there are things that
could be cleaned up in REXX, but there are other things that are eleant if
not misused.

REXX is inherently kludgy (who needs structures?  SUBSTR can do anything!).

That's not a big REXX exec.  Just de-kludge to your taste, if possible.
IGGCSI00 is tricky to get started with, so you definitely want to start with
a working example.  There are also a couple of assembler samples provided.
There's also a C routine available at
