Wanting to look up some HLASM features, I resigned myself to trying
InfoCenter for 2.1. My experience:
On the Publibz z/OS main page, I find a link to:
z/OS V2R1 Information Center
http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/zos/v2r1/index.jsp
... a page with two frames. The left frame is a list of shelves;
some useful things: HLASM, ISPF, TSO, Unix, ... I had to
scramble to find JCL; it's on the MVS shelf.
Clicking on a shelf opens the right page to a list of books on
that shelf. Each book has Abstract|TOC|PDF options.
TOC opens the TOC; Clicking on an entry opens that section.
Things got much better when I learned to use the "Back" button
in that right frame rather than the browser's "Back" button.
It might get tolerable with an "InfoCenter for Dummies" tutorial.
Is there one?
But:
o I don't know how to search a book or a shelf for a string? Is
it possible? The "Search" windows return either hundreds of
hits or a few irrelevant hits.
o LOOKAT is sorely absent. Could this be restored with an index?
