Re: Will IBM ever expand system object names?

Hello Scott,

Wouldn't that be cool? Maybe IBM could call it something like the "Integrated File System". People could call it "IFS" for short.

Gosh I hope I live to see the day!

🤣

But you're right... let's reinvent all of the string handling in all of the programming languages on the system and make everyone completely rewrite all of their programs. That'd work much better.

Voice of reason! Thanks, Scott! Well put!

I think short names are the least of "our" problems.

:wq! PoC
