If there were more requests IBM would maybe consider it and then
reject it. Remember TSO is almost dead and IBM will not be putting
any energy into a (almost) dead system.
Even if IBM were to start developing major enhancements to TSO, why
would they spend the resources to develope and support COPY when there
is a perfectly reasonable product available from ASI?
Never heard of ASI.. is that like Palm Beach computing?
The copy command would have to be changed slightly to allow PDSe's
and some small other changes as well. Format could be tossed AFAIK
extremely few people used it AFAIK. IIRC MOVE would need some help as
well. Probably not much though. Its been ages but I do remember a bug
that was a PITA in COPY that screwed up the copy if the output
dataset contained sequence numbers that weren't 8 positions, but I
could be wrong its been ages.
