My apologies.  I really didn't think anyone would take that seriously,
just used it as my own shorthand figuring everyone would know I meant
"quiet" since that's what we were talking about.
 
I don't generally use the "short" versions of the commands for the simple
reason that I don't trust myself.  I like to see that full command typed
out so I'm reasonably sure I have it correct.  About the only time I
use the short versions of the commands is when I'm sure I'll be using
a particular one frequently and then I put the whole command string
in a file to be read in, leaving only the address to be filled in.
Got one of those around somewhere, don't recall for what;  I just type
the whole thing out each time, except for large batch jobs.
 
Which reminds me:  SET  as a DD  job?  Hmm?
 
Again, my apologies for any confusion.
