A coworker is trying to use his home directory to store a file in

is that when he executes the command the MAIL command is erroring out
with a 'No such path or directory'. I am wondering if a tilde (~)
should be used. Does the tilde (~) mean the same thing from the AS/400
environment as it does in the QSH environment?

Thanks in advance.

Not sure about the tilde. I don't think it has any special significance
at all. When folks have trouble in my shop, it's usually been embedded
blanks in the path, or even in the file name. Try opening QSH and going
to "/home/<whatever>" then doing a "ls <filename>". If that works, it
might be the path he's constructing. If it doesn't, it's probably the
filename itself. I don't remember if /home is case sensitive. That might
be an issue too.
