David,

You might like to look at this language which is a major enhancement or replacement for JCL.

Not only can it create correct JCL, it can also use Dynamic Allocation to operate under TSO or in batch without JCL.

It also has a Scheduling system that allows full Job networks to be executed.

There is a version which runs on Windows (and other systems) to create JCL to run on the mainframe.

Jol is based on PL/I and extremely easy to use.  It can be used with a simple English style language, or using a Menu style system for novices.

The original concept was that it would be the Universal Command Language for IBM Mainframes (MVS/Zos and VSE) and other systems such as Unix.

Details are here: https://start.oscar-jol.com/

I look forward to discussing it with you.

Sincerely,

Clem Clarke

Hello List,
I see that the IBM announcement 
https://www.ibm.com/common/ssi/ShowDoc.wss?docURL=/common/ssi/rep_ca/3/649/ENUSA21-0533/index.html&lang=en&request_locale=en
 triggered a lot of questions.
I am the Senior Product Manager in IBM working on this new project, so it will 
be a completely new offering from IBM for a JCL Checker tool.
If you are interested in talking with development during the development phase, 
reach-out me. It would not be a sales call, just an early exposure of what we 
plan to deliver with the possibility to influence the roadmap.

Thank you,
Domenico D'Alterio
