Notes:

If the 'LMS' keyword is specified, elements from older format libraries (LMS ISAM, 8 digit element names), as well as elements from the new 44 digit name PLAM format libraries will be selected. OML's created with LMR are selected using the LMR keyword.

The full form (FMSLIB/ LMSLIB/ LMRLIB/ MACLIB) may be specified, as well as the abbreviated form FMS/ LMS/ LMR/ MAC.

PLAM: CFS stores the names of PLAM elements internally in the form t/element/ vers. Elements with the standard version description (X'FF') are not displayed on screen. The standard version description is replaced by the @ character.

LMR: CFS can only process LMR librarys in Input mode. This means that there are restrictions on the scope of some Variable Actions and Action Codes. For example, the Action Codes M (Modify), E (Erase), C (Copy) and R (Rename) are not available for LMR libraries.

The Variable Action ONXADD lib can be used to convert LMR modules to a PLAM library.

Examples:

FMS EST.FMSLIB

The entire table of contents of the FMS library EST.FMSLIB is displayed.

LMS MACROLIB,>:10:'001'

Select all elements from the LMS library MACROLIB which have a version number > 001.

LMS-ISAM: Version numbers always begin in column 10.

LMS LIB.PROG,X/

All X type elements from the PLAM library LIB.PROG.

Elements of a particular type may also be selected by entering the type in the FCBTYPE field.

LMS LIB.PROG,:3:'ABC'

Select all elements of the PLAM library LIB.PROG whose names begin with the string ABC. Specifying the column, :3:, is necessary, since CFS stores the names in the form S/ABC.TEST/002.

LMS LIB.PROG,/ß

Select all elements from the PLAM library LIB.PROG which have the standard version X'FF'.

LMS LIB.PROG,/TEST/

Select all elements of the PLAM library LIB.PROG with the fully qualified name TEST. With this type of name selection, the element type and version number play no part.
