If user willing to part with 100% of contents of one WRKOUTQ spool ... you 
can clear a whole spool ... or move a handful out to some other OUTQ that you 
want to save, then clear the rest.

I have seen software tips, but never found the time to write it myself, where 
a directory of spool entries goes to some *OUTFILE then a CL writes a bunch 
of individual commands that are the equivalent of those 4's in front of 
individual lines, created on the basis of some rules like ... wipe all of 
AL's schedules & compiles, wipe all MIKE's reports that are over 60 days old, 
etc.
