I have been fiddling around with the lexical function f$getjpi
lately, and have found some strange parameters in the help
information which don't seem to work. They are:

ASTPEN, BATCH, DELPEN, DISAWS, FORCPEN, HIBER, INQUAN, LOGIN,
PHDRES, PSWAPM, PWRAST, RES, RESPEN, SSFEXC, SSFEXCS, SSFEXCU,
SSFEXE, SSRWAIT, SUSPEN, SWPVBN, WAKEPEN, WALL

(all returned by $ help lex f$getjpi item)

Many of the names are quite suggestive, ie. ASTPEN probably means
"AST pending", but they are not documented under $getjpi in the
System Service Description. (We are running VMS 4.4 but the manual
says 4.0.) Using them gives the following error:

Unrecognized keyword - check validity and spelling
 \ASTPEN\

Can anyone enlighten me as to what these parameteres are supposed
to mean, and under what circumstances they are supposed to work?
