There are some places where one cannot qualify the library, such as the
36EE (although it does have the FLIB command). In a test environment
(single LPAR, multiple libraries - test/production) using the library
list is pretty much a "must have" for many situations. But I can still
do explicit overrides because I know if I am running in a test -vs-
production mode. But the programs (CALL's) I usually leave to the
library list. Only the tables, data areas, etc., get qualified.
Naturally, there are always exceptions to the rule .-)

Crispin,
You took the words right out of my mouth. If the library is always
explicitly coded, why have the library list at all?
