Don't I need XEDIT first? Is there an XEDIT for z/OS? XEDIT beats the stuffing out of PDF edit as far as I'm concerned. Although I would be mollified if PDF edit would enhance the FIND, RFIND, CHANGE, and RCHANGE to include POSIX regular expressions. > > >The first one was one I can really get into: ADDRESS FTP. > > Yes! > If people here think that the REXX ftpapi mentioned by Gil is insufficient, then maybe I will look at this. It's more like BPXWUNIX calls than ADDRESS TSO, but it looked fairly nice to me. What I really need is for the normal FTP client to do scripting. Something akin to: put somefile if ftprc <> 250 then do; transfer failed exit 16 done /* or od or fi or ??? */ -- John McKown Maranatha! <>< ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
