RE: Odd FTP server behavior ...

Hi Martin

I suppose one reason is, less typing. I like the flexibility of NAMEFMT 1
but weary of the extra typing for LIB/OBJ stuff. And you always need to put
in a QUO SIT NAM 1 to be sure you can do it.

And you're right, it does not do IFS.

Regards

Vern

exist in namefmt 0. What reasons are there to use 0 over 1 - it seems too
limiting to me, particularly as (I assume) you can't do IFS stuff with
it.
