RE: IFS read files

["Dennis Lovelady" <iseries@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

When you compile your program, it might be good for you to specify
option(*SECLVL) on the compile command, so that additional information will
be provided for errors until you get a feel for them.  If you call here for
help, it would be good to provide the error message ID (RNFxxxx) and the
source line (at a minimum) that caused the error.

In this case, I can guess that the system's telling you that you're trying
to reference a procedure called READLINE and you have not provided a
prototype for that procedure.
