:**: Selection of files from all locally and remotely available Pubsets under the current userid.

user-id Selection of files from the default (home) Pubset of the specified userid. The userid must be specified without the preceding $ and the suffixed full stop. If the userid is prefixed with '$', then the first $ character of the userid will be ignored.

:x: user-id Selection of files from Pubset x under the specified userid.

:*: user-id Selection of files from all locally available Pubsets under the specified userid.

:**: user-id Selection of files from all locally and remotely available Pubsets under the specified userid.

Standard: With an empty User-ID field, all files from the home Pubset of the current userid are selected.

Notes:

The user can predefine a userid as standard. Full information on the UID command can be found on page 18-.

Up to BS2000 Version 9.5, the following applies: Under any userid other than TSOS, only shareable files are displayed.

As from BS2000 Version 10, the BACL (Basic Access Control List) and ACL (Access Control List) features are implemented. This means that non-shareable files from a foreign userid may also be displayed if the BACL characteristics for those files are activated, and access (read/write/execute) is allowed. Equally, shareable files of a foreign userid that do not have a BACL attribute allowing access to the current userid will not be displayed.

Examples:

USER2

:B:USER2

Userid $USER2 in Catalog :B:

:B:

Public Volume Set :B: under the current userid.

$$USER3

The userid actually begins with a $ character: $USER3.

The first $ character of the userid is ignored by CFS.

The file named CFS.USER contains 5 records with the following contents:

:G:TT08

By entering the following selection condition:

NPSAP;(CFS.USER)
