I use rmcobol85 on redhat linux and I need a way to verify from within
my program that a user-specified file exists in a specific location on
the filesystem. For example, if the user inputs the filename
"myfile.txt" I need to check the /tmp directory for the file and tell
the user if the file exists or not. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks
