Re: What to teach someone new to IBMi

[Charles Wilt <charles.wilt@xxxxxxxxx>]

Probably from the beginning...

Was new to me...kind of...

I've often done GO SOMELIB/*ALL when I don't remember a menu name...

GO *ALL is just short for GO *LIBL/*ALL

Shows all menus in your *LIBL.

GO QSYS/*ALL

Would show all IBM menus...

I never put 2 + 2 together... :)
