RE: Deleting a whole subtree in the IFS quickly and easily? - For the QSH impaired...

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Wow! I sort of remembered that, from another post. But did not remember 
option 9. Wonderful!

And infuriating. This is something, along with option 6, that belongs out 
in WRKLNK, not buried in some arcane, strange location like this. BTW, opt 
5 on a directory gets you to the same place, with no limit of function, 
i.e., you can "edit" a directory from the "display" command. Not the way 
the 400 usually works, is it?

Besides, these commands are johnny-come-latelies in the IFS world.

Sheesh!

If you want a good time, run EDTF '/' and take option 6 on QIBM. The reason 
you can have a good time is, your display will be occupied for some 
time.   ;-)  Go take a nap, read a book, whatever!
