Re: VM/370 CE - Editing an APL function
I'm very impressed - that can't have been trivial. It wasn't clear to me if you'd repurposed the "standalone" supervisor to run in a VM (and that's why I asked what gets IPL'd in the VM). But your

Re: VM/370 CE - Editing an APL function
Hi Tony, I wrote entirely new code in the APL supervisor to support 3270s. I replaced the old supervisor code to run 1 APL user in 1 CMS Virtual Machine. All that new code is included in the download

Re: VM/370 CE - Editing an APL function
I've seen the code (both 50 years ago on fiche and more recently), but I didn't agree to anything. I built a runtime environment on VM/370 to use that code. I made it work on So you wrote entirely new

Re: VM/370 CE - Editing an APL function
Are you saying that CP has no 2741 support? Someone must have taken it out. The 2741 was a mainstay of VM/370 when it was in its prime. I'm also puzzled about how APL\360 got 3270 support. Certainly

True. Our VM/370 has no linemode terminal support for a 2741. Bob Bolch [email protected]> wrote:

What you wrote is reported in the GC26-3847 manual from 1975 but it doesn't seem to work with the version of APL available to us Marco

Re: VM/370 CE - Editing an APL function
e.g. [delta4] where delta is the APL delta sign (on key D) would delete line 4 of the current function. to open the editor use the nabla operator. eg. nabla TEST [] ________________________________

deltaN in square brackets deletes a single line in the APL del editor. ________________________________ Sent: Friday, April 12, 2024 9:23 PM To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Subject: Re:

Re: VM/370 CE - Editing an APL function
Hey Dave, I remember it is possible to edit APL functions on a full screen 3270 with APL support, but I haven't looked at it in years. I will look into it this week. Bob

Hm. I should try it with my 3279 S3G-1, which has the APL ROS in it (but not an APL keyboard). -- Jay Maynard

It works OK with C3270! Best regards, Ren¨¦.

Re: VM/370 CE - Editing an APL function
The version of APL360 that I made available only has support for PCOMM and the Blue Zone 3270 emulators with their APL features. There is no support for any line mode terminal emulation. Bob Bolch

Re: VM/370 CE - Editing an APL function
Correct, APL did not initially support 3270's as these did not yet exist. You needed a 2741 terminal attached via start/stop line.? I know this because my first IT job (early 70's) was in
