	In-memory and Imagine files behave differently from traditional disk-resident files, particularly with respect to I/O and recovery.

	The VIEW and DISPLAY commands now indicate when a file's organization (FILEORG) corresponds to an In-Memory file or an Imagine file. This information is shown directly alongside the existing file organization description, so you no longer need to check the original DEFINE command or other sources to determine whether a file is memory-resident.
