Hi Folks,

    This note concerns the CBT Tape web site, www.cbttape.org.

I have pretty much completed the addition of the XMIT Viewer section. There had been a "problem" for people without a z/OS or MVS system, to look at CBT Tape files, most of which are packaged there in "zipped TSO XMIT" format. After unzipping, they are (usually) still in TSO XMIT format, which is EBCDIC-based, and not directly readable on (mostly ASCII-based) PC's.

Several XMIT-format viewers have been developed for non-z/OS platforms, and some of them are on display (and downloadable) from a new panel that I've installed on www.cbttape.org (the CBT Tape website). The panel is addressable as "XMIT Viewers" from the panels accessible through the top-left-side buttons on the CBT Home page. Its direct address is:

www.cbttape.org/xmitview.htm

    Also please note another new panel:

www.cbttape.org/zips.htm

We hope that these additions will be helpful to many people. Use everything in good health..!!

Sincerely,    Sam
