Re: VM/ESA era manuals?
I've found the best way to get the list of VM/ESA manuals is to search for publication number SK2T-5787-04. When you're viewing the publication information, click the link that says "Click here for an

Re: VM/ESA era manuals?
I found a fair portion of the manuals for r2.3, r2.4 and z/VM on the IBM z/VM website a few years ago. I don't know if they are still there.?I have a complete set of r2.3 or 2.4, but they are in

VM/ESA era manuals?
Does anyone know if there is an archive anywhere of VM/ESA era manuals? I tried getting to bitsavers.org but it seems to be bandwidth-overloaded and does not respond. Are there bitsavers mirrors

Re: Fortran I/O
Hi Steven, CMS "borrowed" the FORTRAN compiler from MVS. You will need FILEDEF statements to associate MVS DDNAMEs and FORTRAN unit numbers with files or devices, for example (untested): FILEDEF

Fortran I/O
Guys, thanks for all the help so far. I got the card punch, printer and IND$FILE transfers working. Next I thought I'd try compiling a Fortran program. I grabbed the example on

Re: Real and Virtual Printers and Punches and File Transfers
Steven Well if you are using one of the incarnations of the six-pack it comes with ind$file and you can use that to move files in either direction. If you are using Windows and the standard TN3270

Re: Real and Virtual Printers and Punches and File Transfers
You need to start the "real" card punch or printer, for example, while logged in to OPERATOR or MAINT, use: CP START 00D (00D) is the "real" address of the "real" card punch. Regards, Peter Coghlan.

Re: Getting Started with VM/CMS
Steven There are a couple of IBM editors with a prefix area. If you used VM it was most likely you used XEDIT. Superficially it looks similar to the ISPF editor but few, if anyone used that on VM ISPF

Real and Virtual Printers and Punches and File Transfers
Thinking about how I might be able to transfer a simple text file from within CMS to the Hercules host I had the idea that I may be able to send it to the card punch which would should then appear in

Re: Getting Started with VM/CMS
Mentioning xedit, that was going to be my next question. The editor I remember was one where each line was prefixed by an area into which you could type one or two letter commands and block operations

Re: Getting Started with VM/CMS
It was not until spring 1988 that IBM decommitted from the General Availability of VM/XA 1, so VM/ESA was later. On the 24 bit side ... VM/SP 3 was popular in 1985, VM/SP 4 was soon after, and VM/SP 5

Re: Getting Started with VM/CMS
1985 would have been VM/SP release 3 era.? I installed VM/ESA 1.1 in early 1992.? Logging on via the logo screen came about with VM/SP.? With VM/370, it is easier if you clear the logo screen

Re: Getting Started with VM/CMS
35 years ago ... 1985 ... VM/ESA ... so a bit more modern to the old six pack (!) On the six pack 1.3 beta we have fsedit rather than xedit and fslist. Both community created. And also brexx. Fsedit

Re: Getting Started with VM/CMS
Thanks for the replies. After some experimentation, I discovered that the 'logon' command only works when abbreviated to 'log'. Using the abbreviated form I can specify both username and password on
