I have found using the IFS makes it a lot easier for people to
maintain/import/export certain files from their Windows PCs.  I have found
it very useful in maintaining form letter emails.  The person responsible
for the verbiage just has to open a text file kept on the IFS with notepad,
make any changes they need, and save it.  In my opinion, this is much easier
for them than maintaining the verbiage in a physical file.

Subject: RE: **IFS**

I have a question...
Does anyone want to access IFS files from within RPG?
I don't just mean by prototyping the C/Unix APIs, but in a robust
RPG-like manner?
I'm thinking along the lines of ext files for storing simple values,
perhaps as a replacement for data areas and control database files.

Is this something that is important? A survey I took recently indicated
that most people store HTML files as well as some type of data in the
IFS.
