Jim, didn't you notice that Al Barsa posted the CMD source already?  But
I doubt that it will help you.  You can set up a SNGVAL with *SRCDBG, but
as soon as anyone enters some other option, that default goes back to
*NOSRCDBG.  You can't set defaults for all the options.

Me, I'd go the PDM route.  It shouldn't be too hard to get your
co-workers accustomed to compiling with a PDM option.  Especially if you
all agree that using *SRCDBG is a good idea.

Do your folks currently type CRTRPGPGM on the command line?  If so, they
may be ready to learn about PDM.  If not, how are you going to get them
to use your new command instead of using 14?

One more problem with creating your own command to call CRTRPGPGM's CPP
is that it won't work at security level 50.  I'm not sure about 40.
