Hello,
I thought SIGNAL wasn't supported because of documentation I read (must have been old).? My template (which I just uploaded) does:
/*------------------------*\ | ?Enable trap processing ?| \*------------------------*/ ? ?SIGNAL ON ERROR ? ?SIGNAL ON FAILURE ? ?SIGNAL ON HALT ? ?SIGNAL ON NOVALUE ? ?SIGNAL ON SYNTAX??
I found REXX on VM/CE isn't supporting SIGNAL ON FAILURE
Bob suggested opening a ticket in an earlier email (at?).
Is VM/CE BREXX supposed to support SIGNAL ON FAILURE?? If yes, then I'll open the ticket.? If not, why and can it someday do it?
Finally, what is the difference between REXX and BREXX, if any?
Thank you,
Bertram Moshier? WB8ERT

Re: Two WC3270 questions.
Hello,
I have been doing a send all along.? Please review my first email.
After reviewing successful transfers, I realized there were things I was doing that the successful ones weren't.? This time I decided to accept all the defaults and the transfer worked!
Thank you for the help!
Bert.

Re: "Waterloo Tapes" in H390-VM group's Files area
Hi, Dave,
Those VM Workshop tapes that have "PLC" in there were created with VMFPLC2 ... VMFPLC2 was used by IBM to create distribution tapes, and uses a better blocksize than the ordinary CMS TAPE command.??
So, for those Workshop tapes, just use VMFPLC2 instead of TAPE (or PETAPE in the case of the older WATERLOO tapes).
Hope that helps,
Mark S. Waterbury

Re: "Waterloo Tapes" in H390-VM group's Files area
"You must then use PETAPE instead of the normal VM CMS TAPE command, because that was what was used to create those tapes. PETAPE compressed the data on the tapes, somehow, or at least used a better blocksize, versus the old CMS TAPE command."
And based on examining their contents, it does indeed look like they were created with a different command than the usual VM "TAPE" command. Each block of George's "VM Workshop" tapes (hosted on Dave's and my site) start with ".PLC" whereas each block on the "Waterloo" tapes start with ".CMS"
So we know they're completely different.
I am trying to determine the provenance of the WATERLOO tapes, *not* George's VM Share tapes.
Just wanted to make that clear to everyone.
Thanks.

Re: "Waterloo Tapes" in H390-VM group's Files area
Hello, all,
The :CIA mods" are on the Release 3 and Release 5 Waterloo tapes.??
By the time of Release 6, it was decided (by Sandra Ward?) that the CIA mods were "too large" to continue to put them on the same tape, so they were moved to a separate tape that could be requested from the VM SHARE project (Sandra Ward, UofW) back in the day,? But, as far as I am aware, no one has a copy of that particular tape archived.? ?However, as far as I know, the "CIA Mods" from the Rel. 5 Waterloo tape should all work fine on VM/370 Rel. 6 and above (e.g. VM/CE or the SixPacks etc.)
Merry Christmas to all, and a Happy New Year! :-)

This is also where Fish found them 5 years ago, according to narchive. Correct. And the files on my SoftDevLabs FTP site are EXACTLY IDENTICAL to the ones that Dave has on his site. But they're not the same tape as the ones whose provenance I am trying to determine. They're not the same tapes.

"NOTE that these "VM Workshop" tapes are from the 1980s and 1990s, and so most of that stuff may not work, or would require significant effort to rewrite, to work under VM/CE which is based on the 1970s vintage VM/370 Release 6, plus a few "local mods." "Those Workshop tapes are expressly for VM/SP and VM/ESA. The Waterloo tapes from the VM SHARE project from back in the late 1970s and are for VM/370 Rel. 2, 3, 5 and 6." You even reminded me that loading their contents onto a VM system required non-standard handling: "HINT: (this can be important) -- on most, if not all, of those Waterloo tapes, you do a TAPE LOAD * * from the first file of the tape (under VM/CMS), and you get two files, a file named ABSTRACT ABSTRACT A1, and PETAPE MODULE A1 (unless you tell it to load them on some other minidisk)."
