Peter,

It's been going down steadily. On VM/ESA 2.4 it was 2 bytes. We
skipped ahead to z/VM 4.4 and it went down to 16 bytes. I complained
(ETR) and was told I could try the old VM/ESA FLIST module.
It worked, but the users were okay with 16 characters. Now we are z/VM
5.2 and it is down to 9 characters. That was a little too small, so we
copied the 4.4 FLIST onto 5.2 where it is working now.

Going down to 7 sounds even worse. Personally, I'd switch to FILELIST
if I could figure out how to make the PF keys work right (ie, "the
same as FLIST"). I must have BROWSE!
