Phil,
Having worked at a company that had an Arabic contract a long tome ago in a
galaxy far, far away, I can tell you that Arabic numbers are not foreign
-- they have always read and printed their numbers left-to-right. Remember,
they invented the concept of zero.
The company I worked for at
But to foul up my own point, I just remembered that on the linux systems I
have played with, the GNU cp command does NOT copy original date/time
UNLESS you specify the -a parameter.

No matter what system you happen to be on, when you display the creation
date/time for a file, you expect it to be a constant that reflects the
actual creation date/time. Copy semantics should always preserve this
constant quality to avoid the surprise factor.
And even if an ftp is a foreign

That explanation does not cover all cases. There is also the dropped VPN
problem, where DHCP lease has not changed, IP address has not changed, but
VPN tunnel is dropped due to outside influences (timeouts due to volume at
your ISP can cause this, I have been told). In these cases there is no
Thanks for the archive pointer, Sam, that was very helpful. I did read
about Gilbert's exit software earlier in the thread, but IANASP so I can't
put it on the systems at my employer, I can only suggest it to the powers.
Still, doesn't it seem strange to need an exit to get what should be normal
That does make some sense (the bit about convincing the compiler that a
parameter is a pointer). Thanks for the tip.

In my specific case I am passing p1, p2, ... deliberately. I will try
removing the operator and see what is generated...
OK, tried that and without a operator the generated code passes the
address of a COPY of the value of the variable. So, the parameter list is
addresses, but NOT the address
Thanks for the tip, Tom. I'll take a look and ask my sysprogs to consider

Bob,
The *reason* that your C compile may be using PM3 features may be due to
the compiler options that are set for your installation and/or compile PROC.
Use of options like GOFF and others cause the compiler to output object
code that can only be bound into a program object. Other options I

But that doesn't cover the millions of lines of batch and CICS and DB2 and

I'm sorry, but Java and C# and .Net aren't going to replace those anytime
soon, IMHO. Add friendly (YMMV) interfaces to them,
