This group is for all folks running the original IBM VM/370 Release 6 operating system (or later (e.g. VMTCE (Community Edition)) on Hercules. Like the other early IBM operating systems this version has always been in the public domain and so can be freely distributed. The base version as supplied by IBM is lacking in many facilities. IBM solved this by providing additional extension products which were licensed and so are not available. There are however many user enhancements available which can be installed. In addition, in order to get users up and running quickly updated "releases" of VM/370 included the most popular updates are available for download, so novices can start to learn VM without having to delve into the system internals. It is intended that this wiki will provide information on the base release and these updates.
The available versions are here :-

Re: How to enter the cent sign using x3270 on a raspberry pi
I've sort of solved my problem - I typed a whole load of characters into a text file on my Mac then copied them to my Pi and thence to VM. One of them turned into a cent in CMS so I can now edit the

Re: How to enter the cent sign using x3270 on a raspberry pi
How about the CMS command SET INPUT? For example: SET INPUT E0 4A Then type a backslash (\). Note that you may see a backslash when entering it in the input area but it should turn into a cent sign

Mark, CMS is a single user operating system so there are no ¡°user¡± or ¡°group¡± ids. It has no directories, so no inodes. Think MS DOS 2.0. You IPL it in a virtual machine, and in that machine,

Dave, I did find DIFF MODULE and PATCH MODULE, but I can not find the source code, on the GCCCMS minidisks, nor the MAINTC minidisks. Not finding any USERs that might be"hiding" those files, either.
