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 :-

I like the proposed change, because that is what IBM C for z/OS and z/VM use. Bob [email protected]> wrote:

To be honest, I don't like either, as they both appear to be a kludge. If I had to pick, I would recommend the first and forget the second. That and $3 might buy you a cup of coffee ;-) and if it

Folks, I am feeling rather frustrated at present. So when I look at the IBM C/370 manual I see that fopen() was extended to allow the file attributes to specified in the mode attribute so for

Re: novice help with cmsbatch job output
Personally, I prefer to submit the batch job from CMSUSER and spool both PRT and CONSOLE back to CMSUSER. This way I can examine the output with the SFBROWSE command, and use the purge and/or print

Re: How To Capture CP SPOOL Command Output

Thank you, Bob. I removed the ' )' at the end of each EXECIO, and it is now working better. I didn't guess that STRING would swallow the right parenthesis. Ready; T=0.20/0.24 17:50:14 pars QUERY

#VMCE
EXECIO has some non-standard characteristics in the way it processes the STRING operand: STRING text supplies up to 255 characters of output data or a CP command explicitly on the EXECIO command line.
