The same thing for VM/XA would also be desirable.  We have multiple sites
using our VM system through TCP/IP and would like to print output to the
line printers on their UNIX machines.  It would be nice to handle it
entirely from VM, but if not we also are investigating using our AIX
system with software that works with RSCS.
