Guys and GalsWhatever you do, when building the product for any 'new'
environment, you must obviously change and adapt the building scripts (JCL vs.
CMS scripts in that case) but please, PLEASE, do not skip any step even if you
believe (usually falsely) that a specific step is not necessary.
And, if you do it for z/VM, please send me a full and annotated (i.e. heavily
documented, step by step, and all scripts, all documented for novices) package
including usage scripts. Remember that I have never seen a z/VM machine, so
please leave as little as possible for my imagination. I promise to publish
this, with or without mentioning the contributor's name (as per your request)
under the same open source terms.
The aforementioned usage seems to bypass the LE layer and is compiling some
program named PCRE as a wrapper component for the piping process (the original
package does not have one like it), so the source code of that program would be
important as well (actually, such a wrapper would be beneficial for z/OS as
well.)
In short, a full port to z/VM, based on my port is a nice complement for my
package and should be published as well.

Hum, that looks _interesting_. I'll be studying it a bit to see if I can
"pervert" it to my own use on z/OS.
