I had to do something similar at a prior position - in this case z/OS ->
VSE.  It wasn't very pretty.

Problem #1 - there is no RECEIVE-type program.  But I did take a REXX based
on a program written by (I think) Dave Alcock that displays info about what
is in an XMIT file and change it to actually build a LIBR member.  

Problem #2 - how to get the data there...I wound up wrapping VSE JCL around
the XMIT data which invoked the REXX program.

Problem #3 - Because of how #2 works, if '/*' winds up in cols 1-2 of the
XMIT record, VSE will signal EOF and the REXX program terminates
prematurely.

I also monitor VSE-L, so if you do post over there I'll see that.

Later,
Ray

Subject: VSE Version of XMIT & Receive

Hi,

I use TSO XMIT and RECEIVE for moving data between various zOS systems and
packaging software.

I now need to do the same for some VSE LIBR files and VSE is a very dark art
as far as my skill set is concerned.

Anyone have any ideas how I may go about this in the VSE world?

Any help greatly appreciated.
