Re: Retrieve command defaults

["Peter Colpaert" <Peter.Colpaert@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mike,

What I'm actually looking for is a tool that will allow me to view the
default parameters for any command at any time, without actually running or
prompting the command.

Adding an exit program, executing the command, removing the exit program
and interrogating a file does sound a bit overkill.

Thanks anyway.

Hi Peter

What I was thinking was that you could attach the exit program to the
command(s) you wish to retrieve defaults for, execute the commands once to
capture the defaults, store in a file, then interrogate the file
afterwards. Then, remove the exit program.

I haven't actually used the programs myself yet, but there is an excellent
article on their use in iSeries news May 2001.

Regards
Mike
