The following are excerpts from an article in the latest Software Tools
Communications about putting the tools up under CMS:

"...IBM assumes that anyone who keys in a lower case character has either
made some horrible mistake or was forced to strike that key at gunpoint.
This assumption rears its ugly head throughout the tools implementation
process..."

"...CMS provides a facility for accessing parameters from within an
executing program, but only after each argument has been converted to
upper case and truncated to 8 characters..."

"Depending on how you want to look at it, CMS has either no file naming
conventions or too many conventions.  Certainly there is no consistent
convention."
