Thanks.

I thought you also pointed out that CMS found a way to work around it (or
maybe that was Chuckie).  I thought, perhaps naively, that Linux may be
able to work around it also.

Actually, I don't really want the output of 'Q DASD DETAILS 0-FFFF',
rather, it was the best test case I could think of to generate a lot of
output.  What I do want is to be able to get the output of any CP command
the user wants, and display it.
