Re: CL inprovements

Sorry, I'm responding to the list because it's a good topic for the list...

What CL really needs is:

• Support for more than one file at a time
• Printer file support
• Internal Subroutines
• a FOR command
• the ability to detect an end of key range
• the ability to recover from an End of File condition (CPF0864)

Well I shot my mouth off at sound off at COMMON again to IBM about CL.
This time
I met with a guy from Rochester who wanted my opinions as to what would be
needed
to improve CL.     BTW,   the main man   Tom J.  was fielding the questions.

DON'T RESPOND TO THIS LIST ABOUT THIS.

If you have an opinion.    Short Sweet.  To the point.    Of what you'd like
to
see enhanced in CL,     Send them to me personally.    I am getting ready to

email the person with some ideas.

Send to

JPCARR@tredegar.com

I will forward them to the person at Rochester with my suggestions.

If we get some enhancements that we've been wanting for 20 years,
my looking foolish at soundoff would have been worth while.
