  At least consider the more appropriate implementation using a 
subsystem routing program for the interactive subsystem(s).  The INLPGM 
is not the better choice for something intended to be run for most\all 
users [or most\all devices] of the interactive subsystem, since any 
custom initial programs will require either multiple copies of the 
sample code, or that an invocation of the SamplePgm is correctly 
maintained in the source of each custom initial program, or that all 
users use just the one [i.e. no custom versions of] INLPGM.
