I've used most, if not all of the commands listed in the article on z/OS

The following command;

{ mkdir -p $HOME/tmp3/sub1/sub1_a ; }

will work under USS or z/Linux and most UNIX shells.

If the curly braces "{}" are not working make sure you are using the
correct codepage for your USS session (telnet or 3270 emulator); ISO
Latin-1 (CP1047) should be the codepage and environment variable
LANG="C" should be set...

For what it's worth most of the tips in that article are somewhat useful
but I would not call them "bad" habits... Just simpler... It is still an
interesting article.

My $.02...

Most of them, I agree with (in the sense it's logical). The tenth, (the
redirection one) I often with I hadn't, because I frequently find myself
enhancing the commandline and prefixing it with a grep, and that
requires more rearranging.
