And to think, I stayed with GML as long as I could because, once one passed the learning curve, GML was really fast to write - at least for me it was. When we lost our VM machine, some of us used B2H to convert our files to html. B2H did a pret ty decent job, but I never could get it to print well. Mostly, I would B2H, then copy all/paste to Word, then replace all for the font tags and other things that B2H didn't covert.
I never knew GML could be used under TSO. That would have been nice. I expect I would have continued using it there. Is it still available?
