Why not just catalog the original in EURO.BP for the end users, and do a
RUN DOUG.BP DOUG when testing your changes.

Subject: [U2] execute code/proc question HELP!!!!!!!!

is there any way in Universe 10.x (running on AIX) to "path" how 
universe finds code to execute?  For example I have a program called

"DOUG" in EURO.BP and copy it to DOUG.BP and compile/catalog it there, 
so that now the VOC entry points to DOUG.BP but I would like other users

to be able to run the original version while I fix my version.

For those familiar with jBASE this is easily solved by modifying each 
users path to that they "search" for the object code in a specific
order. 

for example

PATH=$PATH:/usr2/zircon/DOUG.O:/usr2/zirocn/EURO.BP.O

this way it looks in DOUG.BP.O and if the object code is found executes 
it otherwise look in EURO.BP.O and if found there execute it.  Now all I

have to do is modify other users PATH to NOT search DOUG.BP.O or move 
EURO.BP.O in front of DOUG.BP.O and it will find EURO.BP.O first (and 
stop looking)

I am hoping that there is something equivalent in universe or some way 
that I can duplicate this (I am even willing to look at doing it "with 
basic code"  if possible)

ANY and ALL suggestions are welcomed!

thanks
