No idea; I can't tell either for CKFSTYPE, GCOMD, and GFILE1.CKFSTYPE EXEC Y2, seems to be tied to MECAFF, as it checks on DIAG58 and your console type. GCOMD EXEC Y2,? seems related to some kind of G class user support, things you can, or can't do. GFILE1 EXEC Y2, is tied to AUTOSAVE, which ia a CMS EDIT subcommand. Seems to clear the last AUTOSAVEd work. My 2 cents. ?... Mark S. |

Hercules-helper and the PI Zero 2
开云体育Just wanted to mention, I received a Raspberry PI Zero 2 (that is a $15 computer), flashed Ubuntu 21 server on the memory card, set the SSID and password on that card, booted and installed tmux on it, cloned and started hercules-helper in a tmux session, went shopping for groceries, and when I came back I could restore and boot VM, all without one hitch. Bravo!It automatically built SDL Hercules with integrated Rexx support and all dependencies, from source, using just one command:?~/hercules-helper/hyperion-buildall.sh --auto I want to extend my gratitude to Bill Lewis for making this possible. Best regards, René Jansen.? |

Re: The EE editor
开云体育Anthony, No I think the first posting was OK. Its when you call it from the command line, so go:- ? EE TEST FILE ? Where test file has mode A2 it loads it as “A1”. I assume it just does an “open” with “TEST FILE” and we lose the “A1/A2” Dave ? From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Anthony Smith

Re: The EE editor
Hi Ant, I believe the correct operation would be to preserve the file mode number of an existing?file, even if the number was not supplied on the EE invocation. That should eliminate any interactions with what FSLIST may supply, when EE is called by FSLIST.? ? ? ? ?? Best regards, Bob Bolch |
Re: The EE editor
Hi Dave, I have had a look at the code. I made a posting earlier (which I have now deleted) which was misleading.
I have a question. Is this an interaction between FSLIST/EE or a direct call from the command line? I have tried passing A2 through from the command line and that all works OK. There is a line in the code which (I think) will complete the third parameter with "A" if it is not supplied. This might be the source of the issue. |

Re: CLOAD EXEC
开云体育Rene, Thanks, I know I should have looked. I hope you can’t hear me scream. So I also need to fix CMSCMDS and CPCMDS as both don’t match what is installed…..

The EE editor
开云体育Folks, I seem to have found a quirk in the EE editor, or perhaps the “C” run time it depends on. If I edit an existing file. E.g. ? EE TEST FILE A ? Or ? EE TEST FILE ? The filemode is set to “A1” even if the existing file is “A2”. I haven’t investigated the run time… .. it makes creating helpfiles a minor chore… ? Dave |
