Thanks.

As to why, well, I'm working on a program that scans through all active
jobs with a particular jobname, and needs to be able to recognize which
ones are in *MSGW state (which would indicate that they're stuck in an
error condition). Unfortunately, (1) I'm developing this on a different
box from the one the application being monitored runs on, and (2) all
known ways to put the real application into a *MSGW state are bugs that I
fixed earlier this week. Thus, I need to be able to create test jobs for
this thing to monitor, with some in a *MSGW state.

I could tell you more, but then I'd have to kill you. ;-)
