RE: TEXT file doubt

Hi Tom -

For example, there might be a significant number of programmers out there who have no clear idea what [FMTDTA] is meant to be. It sure doesn't bring to mind the concept of "sort" right off the bat and it certainly isn't considered current technology regardless of how well it works. You _almost_ have to be a dinosaur just to know it exists

So what does that say about those of us who remember #GSORT, particularly having first encountered it on a S/32?! <G>
