Just started testing with my 1.9 system, and yes, there is more integration in ISPF to access zFS and HFS files.
For example, from ISPF Opt 2, you can now enter a UNIX file name: ISPF Library: Project . . . TE23 Group . . . . TEST . . . . . . . . . Type . . . . JCL Member . . . (Blank or pattern for member selection list) Other Partitioned, Sequential or VSAM Data Set, or z/OS UNIX file: Name . . . . . /u/TE23/Test + Volume Serial (If not cataloged) Tom Chicklon -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Roger Lowe Sent: Wednesday, November 28, 2007 8:22 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Why isn't OMVS command integrated with ISPF? >On Wed, 28 Nov 2007 16:50:21 -0600, Kirk Wolf ><[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >>... >>I thought it might be nice to write an OMVS replacement as an ISPF >dialog, >>but it is not obvious to me that it is very easy to do... >> >>What you would like is a multithreaded (multiple TCBs under z/OS) >ISPF >>application - one thread handles normal input processing, and the >other >>updates a temporary scrollable table with the output as it arrives.

I thought there were some enhancements to ISPF in z/OS 1.9 that allowed Edit/Browse of z/OS Unix files. I haven't quite got a z/OS 1.9 system up yet to confirm or it could be that my memory is failing me !
