This is great! And what is really great, @Jonathan, is how responsive the HLASM team is. No "put in an RFE (or whatever it is called now) and in six months we will tell you it's a good idea but we don't intend to do it." What was this? 30 days from plaint on this list to availability? Would that every product were so responsive.

It includes information about operand syntax, base instructions for extended mnemonics, the ranges of OPTABLEs to which that instruction applies, the instruction format, the hexadecimal opcode and the descriptive name of the instruction. https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/hla-and-tf/1.6?topic=guide-index-supported-instr uctions This took longer than expected because we had problems fitting the information into the PDF version of the table without getting operands or instruction names split within words. However, our helpful writer has managed to fix most of the layout problems and has added zero-width spaces so that operand splits should only occur between operands. This table is generated by a program from the HLASM instruction tables, where most of the descriptive instruction names are derived from appendix B.2 of the z/Architecture Principles of Operation. We therefore hope it should be practical to continue to maintain it to include any future new instructions. Jonathan Scott, HLASM IBM Hursley, UK
