Having tried to keep my COBOL as portable as possible, and having never
really learned to use intrinsics, I have now been asked to CALL
INTRINSICs, and have a newbie question (not that other questions
weren't). I want something that will time out and return success or
failure, much like an FREAD will. I am looking at FWRITE and IOWAIT, and
possibly FDEVICECONTROL, but feel rather lost. Any help, off list or on,
would be welcome.
