Re: Source Naming conventions

["Captain Jerry" <captainjerry@xxxxxxxxx>]

We use single alpha characters to identify.  Usually 3 of them... WKR268 =
Warranty system, the K stands for KIA I assume, and the R for RPGLE, 268 is
just a sequence number, which would kind of link say WKC268 is the CLLE that
calls WKR268 (Oh, and then if WKR268 is a Subfile Selection type program,
with a separate program handling a maintenance screen or something, it would
be WKR268A)  Whatever makes sense to you and your shop I guess.
