This seems like the wrong approach.  Setting this up on an application by
application basis could get tedious.
 
How about this.  What if we add a qualifier to the ACQUIRE command that
will set this up automatically.  For example,
 
    $ ACQUIRE/SCRATCH 50000
 
or...what if it just set up this definition by default?
 
Any comments?
