The shareware tools I use the most are BR, COMPRESS, FASTPATH, SYSDEBUG, SHOWDASD, STEMEDIT, XDEL, XREN and STRING (an assembler macro) which are in file 183 of the CBT tape, as well as here: http://gsf-soft.com/Freeware/ FASTPATH is the program I use, by far, the most often. I miss it a lot when I have to work on a customer's system. Fortunately, FASTPATH can be used without having to modify the LOGON PROC or CLIST, which makes it easier for consultants to install. SYSDEBUG and STRING are used in most of my programs, so I use them a lot also. I also use PDS86 a few times a week, but only to add an extent or directory blocks to a PDS. I only use it as a TSO command, not as an ISPF application. -- Gilbert Saint-Flour GSF Software http://gsf-soft.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
