That would be the goal of the project I mentioned (using POSIX pipe pair to effect Hartmann Pipes). The base functionality would be highly portable. Adding Rexx to such a thing is easy. Regression testing with Rexx samples from CMS would be a requirement.
Not talking about boiling the full ocean. There are obviously CMS and CP (and TSO) things that do not carry over. But 'PEEKTO', 'READTO', 'OUTPUT', and 'ADDPIPE' would be mandatory ... and verified in Rexx. I'd also concede that they might not be *commands*, maybe loadable functions. But the operation would be seamlessly familiar to any VMer. -- R; <>< On 3/22/19 12:54 PM, John P.
