Curiosities (Was Re: Compute Date Duration)

[Dave McKenzie <davemck@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

OK, but we've been especially dormant of late.  Here's a tidbit:

I noticed an interesting file created by STRPEX (Start Performance 
Explorer): QPEXDATA/QAYPEMICPX.  It has a list of "complex MI 
instructions," with their descriptions.  Some curiosities:

CLUEOP    CLUEOP
CMPFLD    COMPARE FIELD
CPYFLD    COPY/TRANSFORM FIELD
DMOP      DESCRIPTOR MANAGEMENT OP
EXTRMOD   EXTRACT MODULE
NFYHDWCH  NOTIFY WHEN HARDWARE CHANGES
