RE: Some fodder for marketing, perhaps

 >> hopefully in V5R4 the single threaded restriction on jobs in qinter will
be lifted.

Steve - your record is broken! <grin>

Expect to see RPG be fully thread safe in a future release (_not_ V5R4) but
I don't see QINTER changing.  Why on earth would IBM do it (apart from
keeping you happy).  It makes absolutely no sense to improve function in the
dumb terminal area.  They are investing heavily in getting everybody OFF
dumb terminals - QINTER isn't used for anything but dumb terminals - so why
would they spend a cent on it?  It's a bit like saying that MS should invest
millions in creating a new teletype interface to windows!
