Thanks for the script example, Stan. I was thinking about trying something
like that as one way to approach it. It'd still be cleaner/easier if
volutil/showset supported wildcards.

Why would I want that? Mostly for those fuzzy-memory times when I have to
remember "What was the name of that volclass I set up? And what volset did
I associate it with?" Really, it'd be nice to have a wildcardable showset
for other things too; wouldn't you like to do a "showset @ ALL" and send
that to a printer to keep in the "how to rebuild the system from scratch"
notebook?

And yes, I like using XEQ in scripts instead of RUN when possible to avoid
the END OF PROGRAM tag. It's a little thing, but it's annoying. ;-)
