Hi Charles,

Question: what about the environment variables? I assume that if I'm
getting the PATH, I'm getting any other PASE environment variables
that would be set if I had done a CALL QP2TERM to get the interactive
shell.

Yes, you should be getting the environment variables.

How about if I pass an extra, environ(1) =
'PASE_SYSCALL_NOSIGILL=plock=0' + x'00';
In my call to the shell, I assume that will still exist when gpg gets
called.

When QP2TERM starts up, it takes the normal ILE environment variables and copies them into the environment. Then, it adds it's own environment variables to the environment, so that all of these variables are available to PASE programs/scripts. Then it starts a shell, which may add it's own, etc, etc. The only time there should be a conflict is if two programs try to set the same variable for some reason.

With Qp2RunPase(), I believe that it uses the environ parameter instead of taking the ILE environment variables, but otherwise, it works the same way.

As a proof-of-concept, you might try something like this:

           parms(1) = '/QOpenSys/usr/bin/-sh' + x'00';
           parms(2) = '-c' + x'00';
           parms(3) = 'env' + x'00';

The "env" program will print out all of the environment variables to stdout. Then you can see what they're set to.... This way, you can experiment with setting different variables, and see what you end up with in PASE.
