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: CP SET PFnn COPY ccu
It may be that if the OS supports printing to terminal-attached printers, x3270 could do this. It has, and can automatically invoke, pr3287 to provide attached-printer service. (pr3287 can also do

Re: CP SET PFnn COPY ccu
Bertram It copies to a 3270 family printer, so you would need a TN3270 program that supports printers. I don¡¯t see any support for 3270 printers in Hercules, but I don¡¯t see how you would be any
