Mark,

As other have said no need to FORCE just logon to the disconnected ID and you (almost) have control.

It will sometimes crash because its built using old GCC run time modules, but at this point you can logoff or re-ipl cms.

Every one

Is this code still useful? Now we have EE is it necessary?

I have a slight problem with the GCIC command, and am considering something along the lines of the following. ;-)

RUNGCIC HELPCMD

RUNGCIC?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? CMS EXEC

GCIC is a full screen editor for VM/370 CE, that uses the DIAL facility of CP,
to peform full screen editng and browsing of CMS files. It is started by
executing the RUNGCIC EXEC.

When you wish to exit GCIC, you must use the CP FORCE command on the userid
running GCIC.

and RUNGCIC HELPCMD2

Usage Notes:

Execute the RUNGCIC (PROFILE) EXEC file to start the GCIC monitor.? GCIC will
then issue a CP DISCONN(ect), continuing to run in the? background.

From any connected 3270 emulator (including the one you started GCIC from),
issue a:

??????? DIAL <VM-USER-WHERE-GCIC-WAS-STARTED>

such as:

??????? DIAL CMSUSER

You will be prompted:

??????? PRESS ENTER TO CONTINUE

Press the ENTER key, then you should then be greeted by the GCIC Logon screen:

This module is called from the RUNGCIC EXEC.

PLEASE NOTE: You can not LOGOFF of the userid running GCIC. It must be
shut down using the following, where userid is what you DIALed earlier.

CP FORCE userid

See the file, GCIC MEMO U, for details of GCIC.
