	Now, now...  Let's not all bitch at IBM for obscure names...
For every one of those facilities listed in <56@adrvax.UUCP> there
is also a cataloged procedure (i.e., canned JCL) which is called by
a reasonable name which IBM provides with MVS...  

	The names that you see (i.e., IEWL, etc.) are generally internal
names.  If you insist on doing unusual business that can't be handled
by the cataloged procedures, then you get to deal with these.
