Hi Gil,
I have painfully experienced instances where IND$FILE (on z/VM) mangled
a Binary Upload from my MS-Windows 10 Pro workstation.
It works every time I use FTP, though (via CLI or WinSCP).
Regards,
David

so I don't know where my PA1 key is except in my TN3270 session keyboard
what is it when I'm on the console?
I can display and change the PFkeys but don't know what the PA1 key is.
and as expected, the TN3270 key doesn't work on the console

I, too, like ISPF WSA for file transfer and editing PC files with ISPF Editor,
However
Our marvellous SysProgs have advised me that Z/OS 2.4 is the last release which
will support WSA.
I expect I will be retired before 2.5 comes along but I'd appreciate any
guidance for a reliable alternative.

Hi Elaine.
That probably depends upon which 3270 Emulation software you are using.
Which one is it?

I'm an old guy. (Maybe a lot of us are.) I still call it "the DOS window" in
my head, I think because I predate Win 3.1; for a long time I was a plain DOS
user (the PC DOS, not the early mainframe DOS). Win 3.1 wasn't really a
Windows operating system as it's understood now; DOS was the OS, a
I experimented with that when I first became aware of it, but stopped using it
for some reason. I liked very much the ability to use ISPF Edit on some PC
files - and vice versa, sometimes - but for file transfer I thought it was 'way

Sometimes all that's allowed, though. Some of my clients lock up FTP, and make
me use IND$FILE via whatever local 3270 emulation they use.
This can be a major pain. Whenever I start at a new installation, one of my
first jobs is to load up a bunch of REXX tools I've written over the years. If
I've used WS_FTP for 20 yrs and it's got just about everything. Don't know
about PDSE. Has auto for mode selection and gets it right most of the time. For
PDS's does MGETs and MPUTs like a bat.
