RE: QShell GOTCHA

Not optional, quite a bit of IBM i uses that file system.

Case insensitive which is the root file system, multicase which is QOpenSys.

Well that's weird. Is QOpenSys part of the base OS, or is it an optional
component?

I just discovered something about QShell:

It seems that "echo" and "ECHO" are two different commands, that behave

slightly differently:

"echo" resolves standard C/Java/*nix escapes. "ECHO" does not.

FWIW:

$

which echo

/QOpenSys/usr/bin/echo
$

which ECHO

/usr/bin/ECHO

IBM i on Power Systems: For when you can't afford to be out of business!

I'm riding 615 miles (Yes, you read that right) in the American Diabetes
Association's Tour de Cure to raise money for diabetes research, education,
advocacy, and awareness. You can make a tax deductible donation to my ride
by visiting https://list.diabetessucks.net.

See where I get my donations from ... visit
https://lsteml.diabetessucks.net/map for an interactive map (it's a geeky
thing).

I may have diabetes, but diabetes doesn't have me!
