Re: Accessing OPT01

["Mark S. Waterbury" <mark.s.waterbury@xxxxxxx>]

Hi, Marvin:

Files on optical media will appear just like any other IFS file, under 
the pseudo-directory named "/Qopt" ...

Insert your DVD or CD and issue:

   WRKLNK '/Qopt/*'

to see the names of the files on the DVD or CD.

All the best,

Mark S. Waterbury
