Implementing scripting languages designed for Unix are daunting for complex z/OS environments (e.g. TSO, CICS, IMS, Tivioli and more). A Unix process is not a TSO address space with multiple activities. It's not a CICS or IMS transaction. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
