SuperCE compare NON-PAIRED report should have indication whether the non-paired member is an alias.

Customer is trying to run SUPERCE against system proclibs and parmlibs to determine differences including differences in actual members present (new/old) and differences within paired members.

When specifyng '*' in the 'PDS Member List' field, the member list is not displayed as documented in the manua. However, the non-paired report has no indication on which members are aliases. There needs to be some indicator beside each member that is an alias (perhaps truename of member).

For example:
MEMBER SUMMARY LISTING (LINE COMPARE)

NON-PAIRED NEW FILE MEMBERS

MEMB2A
MEMB4
MEMB4A
MEMB5
MEMB5A
MEMB6

In this example, MEMB2A, MEMB4A & MEMB5A are aliases. Customer has to spend time determining the actual true names for these members in the PDS's being processed.
