Why the user luns are not shown?

bash$ touch eraseme
bash$ idl
IDL> openr,1,'eraseme'

just comments : -- we knew/saw that was missing -- not really got requests for that (other problems way more urgent) -- at that long time ago when we worked on extension to HELP (see HELP,/help) I am not sure I would have been capable to do that -- should not be to difficult to implement soon (then good to have a request)

and yes, HELP would need some cleanup and rewriting but some smart tools are available :smile_cat:

Yes, I agree that this is not priority. Usually one knows if one of this luns has been opened and fstat(lun) works. It was just a surprise that the lun was not there. I think for completeness we should implement it some day.

It is a very good news if FSTAT() works well, it gives a direct reference to a solution to implement that in HELP

I do collect such low priority and good starting point functionalities for students in internship.

Do we have somewhere a updated list of request/to-do ?
