Don't forget that a process can also allocate a device for exclusive access, long
before it has opened a channel to it. That also removes it from JOB_CONTROL's
influence.

I don't know the VMS answer but I can give the

terminal.
That function appears to also exist VMS, but may be under-documented.
Thanks for the hints, everybody. Now I hope I can make note of this someplace where
I'll find it again when I have a concrete application to implement.
