This was the interface for generating DFSORT jobs from ISPF Panels. Although we thought it was a good idea when we first developed it back in 1991, as it turned out, people didn't actually need it or use it. We stopped updating it for new functions a long time ago and nobody seemed to notice or care, so we finally dropped it. It turned out to be a lot of development work for very little benefit to customers. Live and learn.
