Work with Graphics Symbol Sets (WRKGSS)
| Where allowed to run: Interactive environments (*INTERACT *IPGM *IREXX *EXEC) Threadsafe: No |
Parameters Examples Error messages |
The Work with Graphics Symbol Sets (WRKGSS) command allows you to show a list of available graphics symbol sets from one or more libraries.
Restrictions:
- Only the libraries to which you have use (*USE) authority will be searched.
- Only the graphics symbol sets to which you have some authority will be shown on the display.
- To perform operations on the graphics symbol sets, you must have *USE authority to the command used by the operation, and the appropriate authority to the graphics symbol sets on which the operation is to be performed.

Graphics symbol set (GSS)
Specifies the graphics symbol sets to be shown.
This is a required parameter.
Qualifier 1: Graphics symbol set
- *ALL
- All graphics symbol sets are shown.
- generic-name
- Specify the generic name of the graphics symbol sets to be shown. A generic name is a character string that contains one or more characters followed by an asterisk (*). If a generic name is specified, all graphics symbol sets that have names with the same prefix as the generic name are shown.
- name
- Specify the name of the graphics symbol set to be shown.
Qualifier 2: Library
- *LIBL
- All libraries in the library list for the current thread are searched. All objects in these libraries with the specified object name are shown.
- *CURLIB
- The current library for the thread is searched. If no library is specified as the current library for the thread, the QGPL library is searched.
- *USRLIBL
- If a current library entry exists in the library list for the current thread, the current library and the libraries in the user portion of the library list are searched. If there is no current library entry, only the libraries in the user portion of the library list are searched.
- *ALLUSR
- All user libraries are searched. All libraries with names that do not begin with the letter Q are searched except for the following:
#CGULIB #DSULIB #SEULIB #COBLIB #RPGLIB #DFULIB #SDALIB
Although the following Qxxx libraries are provided by IBM, they typically contain user data that changes frequently. Therefore, these libraries are considered user libraries and are also searched:
QDSNX QRCLxxxxx QUSRDIRDB QUSRVI QGPL QSRVAGT QUSRIJS QUSRVxRxMx QGPL38 QSYS2 QUSRINFSKR QMGTC QSYS2xxxxx QUSRNOTES QMGTC2 QS36F QUSROND QMPGDATA QUSER38 QUSRPOSGS QMQMDATA QUSRADSM QUSRPOSSA QMQMPROC QUSRBRM QUSRPYMSVR QPFRDATA QUSRDIRCF QUSRRDARS QRCL QUSRDIRCL QUSRSYS
- 'xxxxx' is the number of a primary auxiliary storage pool (ASP).
- A different library name, in the format QUSRVxRxMx, can be created by the user for each previous release supported by IBM to contain any user commands to be compiled in a CL program for the previous release. For the QUSRVxRxMx user library, VxRxMx is the version, release, and modification level of a previous release that IBM continues to support.
- *ALL
- All libraries in the system, including QSYS, are searched.
- name
- Specify the name of the library to be searched.

Examples
WRKGSS GSS(LIB01/ABC*)
This command allows you to display and work with a list of graphics symbol sets which have names that begin with 'ABC' and are stored in library LIB01.
