If you like the vomit-inducing field names used by the QSYSINC RPG  
includes. I don't, and since IBM haven't seen fit to generate proper  
RPG IV includes (they just convert the RPG/400 ones) I generate my own  
from the C includes. Long names, more appropriate data types, proper  
prototypes, etc. I suggest that anyone attempting to use APIs does the  
same. By all means use the IBM includes as a starting point but you  
can do so much better.
