What I meant was that I could use Hercules to develop my IPL text which
does the hard wait of 0xDEADBEEF. I could more easily debug any errors
(how could I make an error with something so simple? I have talent!) on
Hercules than I can on an LPAR at work.

I have MVS 3.8j on Hercules. I can use that to develop the code. It runs
quite well (MVS, that is). And is legal. Along with VM/370 and OS/VS1
and even MVT.

But that is starting to get off-topic.
