LEARNING THE NAMES
The people who make and run the computers have already
given names to almost all of the devices you'll ever use.
SOME NAMES OCCUR FAIRLY OFTEN
LP --> a line printer
LDEV --> a "logical device", usually with a number added on
-->> it could be a terminal -- mine is called LDEV26
-->> it could be a tape drive -- it's known as LDEV7
-->> it could be a printer -- one is called LDEV6
These are probably the most useful ones to know in the
beginning. There are others. It's even possible that your
computer operator has assigned new names to the devices
called LP and LDEV. Maybe...or maybe not.
But if they have, don't let that bother you. Just learn the
names that are being used. Ask your operator or the people
you know who are using the same computer.
