QPDSPLIB ?!

[bvining@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

The following CLP example takes two parameters: the first is an input
and represents the library name, the second is an output holding the
size of the library.  You may find that using this API approach is
significantly faster than DSPLIB *PRINT.  I threw this example together
and it appears to work, but it has not been tested much at all.

Hope it helps,
Bruce
