RE: Openness Includes

["Jerry C. Adams" <midrange@xxxxxxxx>]

Luis,

As far as I can tell, I don't have any unused libraries.  But, if I did, I
would take the additional step of FTPing them to my PC until I needed/wanted
them.

Jerry,

Can you save your unneeded libs to a save file  using DTACPR(*YES)? That
way, you can delete the "full" version and restore them when (and if)
needed.
