Thanks Jack,

What specifically do I need to install from open source ...

/QOpenSys/pkgs/bin/find /var/tmp/* -type f
qsh: 001-0014 Command /QOpenSys/pkgs/bin/find not found.
$

Thanks

Don

You're missing that you're beating your head against the wall dealing with
the IFS using QSH and the tools that come with it.

Assuming you've installed a reasonable amount of open source stuff using
yum
make sure you're using the Gnu tools by putting /QOpenSys/pkgs/bin at the
head of your PATH . Then find should behave as you expect.

One exception to this general procedure is that /usr/bin/iconv understands
EBCDIC while Gnu iconv does not (*despite Calvin Buckley having submitted
and had accepted a PR for EBCDIC to Gnu iconv, which about 2 years later
has still not been released!*)


I can manually delete a single file from wrklnk.


rm is simpler
