In utilities I often read source files.  To format the input I use a copy
member with based data structures for the different formats I find (DDS, RPG
III specs, RPG IV specs).  However, when I also do output to a source member
I sometimes need the same layout for the record I want to write.  Alas, the
based data structure is already in use for the input.  I imagine I could use
LIKEDS for an output record.
