David, Being the curious sort, I turned on my privs and played with the SET WATCH command of V4.4. It seems that this is an XQP debug tool, because it turns on various traces when you use the filesystem. The syntax of the command is: $ SET WATCH FILE/CLASS:(option1,option2...) The following options are available: ALL ATTRIBUTES CONTROL_FUNCTIONS DIRECTORY_OPERATIONS DUMP ATTACHED MAJOR_FUNCTION NONE QUOTA_LENGTH I used SET WATCH FILE/CLASS:ALL and then typed a file, copied a file ran MAIL, and deleted a file. It is rather interesting. Also, the messages typed on the screen do not use the VMS message utility because I had done a SET MESSAGE/NOTEXT/NOSEVER/NOIDENT/NOFACIL and I still got the full %XQP-I-ABCDE... message formats. I don't know exactly which priv you need to run this. I would guess CMKRNL and/or SYSPRV. I got the information for this message by running the VERB program on the SET command definition.
