RE: Client access printer emulation question

We made it a "Q" because it represented Ibm related items specifically
.... if you don't like Q ... use something else
.... the name QSYSCHG gets the point across
.... been using it for about 10 years, never a problem
.... our saves come out just fine (it gets backed up separately every day)

Everyone has their own way
... mine is working just fine
... and I would imagine yours is too

We put things like this into a library called qsyschg

/* Chg STRPRTWTR CMD ... do not prompt to change forms when forms change

*/

CHGCMDDFT CMD(QSYS/STRPRTWTR) NEWDFT('formtype(*all +
*nomsg)')

/* Chg STRPRTWTR CMD ... do not prompt to align after forms change */

CHGCMDDFT CMD(QSYS/STRPRTWTR) NEWDFT('align(*file)')

FWiW: User created libraries should not begin with the letter Q.
Among potential issues that might arise, such a library would not
be included-in\saved-by a SAVLIB *ALLUSR request.

FWiW, I would combine those two requests into just one. I may be
about the only one in the world that would do so while including the
comments inline:

/* Chg STRPRTWTR CMD defaults ... */
CHGCMDDFT CMD(QSYS/STRPRTWTR) NEWDFT(' +
/* do not prompt to change forms when forms change */+
formtype(*all *nomsg) +
/* do not prompt to align after forms change */+
align(*file) ')

Others might choose to, instead of making the comments inline to
the request, do something like:

/* Chg STRPRTWTR CMD defaults ... */
/* FORMTYPE: no prompt on forms change */
/* ALIGN: no prompt on align after forms change */
CHGCMDDFT CMD(QSYS/STRPRTWTR) NEWDFT(' +
formtype(*all *nomsg) +
align(*file) ')
