I wrote an EXEC executed by VMUTIL shortly after midnight to close almost 
all open console files and some open print files.  This way files don't 
grow too big, and, the closed file can be purged by SFPURGER when they are 
old enough to be selected.  If you don't close files every day you can 
loose your console file too quickly: suppose TCP/IP remains up a whole 
month and is the recycled.  Its closed console file gets as tilestamp the 
time it was opened, hence it appears a month old, even though it contains 
very recent information.  If you want my exec, just send me a note.

Secondary users are no longer required to be able to close consoles, just 
issue "CP SEND CP userid SP CON CLOSE" from a user with CP class C.
