Rene, all Yes PC370 was the predecessor of Mainframe Express Assembler from Micro Focus which was then followed by z390 after I left Micro Focus.
PC370 is a MSDOS based mainframe assembler, linker, and emulator published as shareware in 1988. You can still find it on the web in Bill Qualls book appendix here: https://www.billqualls.com/assembler/ (See file diskette.zip) Don Higgins d...@higgins.net www.donhiggins.org -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Assembler List <ASSEMBLER-LIST@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU> On Behalf Of Rene BRANDT Sent: Wednesday, March 6, 2024 4:50 AM To: ASSEMBLER-LIST@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU Subject: Re: Don Higgins has retired from z390 development again Hi Don, For many, many years I have enthusiastically followed your comments and solutions, which were always very precise and to the point. I seem to have worked with PC370, didn't I? Thank you very much for your work. I hope you and your wife have a wonderful, restful retirement that lives up to all you've done for us!
