To summarize: 1. You don't think it's necessary to have editor features like code completion, refactoring, hover-help,  syntax highlighting or static code analysis. 2. Writing macros is an absolute must even if the editor that you use provides commands and key mappings so there is no requireme

Yes, EBCDIC code pages are a mare's nest, even from a US-centric perspective. IND$FILE uses a 3270 datastream and runs within your TSO session. WSA uses an SNA or TCP/IP session totally independent of your 3270 session, and supports ISPF running in batch. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz http://mas

If none of your data are binary, all character data use the same EBCDIC code page and all the characters exist in the target code page then that will work as far as visual fidelity is concerned. If you intend to use the data with a language processor then you also need to ensure that it supports

Never heard of a Version 4.10 of SPF/PC. Perhaps that was in the US and not in the UK. AFAIK The last version of SPF/PC distributed on floppy disks was 4.0.6 - with the final 4.0.7 fix available for download only from CTC's bulletin board (when it was still around, in 1995). After that, CTC switche

I have a situation where I LOAD a program, with a PSW KEY of 8, then branch to it. The program switches to KEY 9, but wants to reference some data in the loaded CSECT (say, for example, a =F constant in the literal area.) This blows up, I'm guessing because the key isn't the same as the loaded m
