ATTENTION: This e-mail came from an external source. Do not open attachments or click on links from unknown or unexpected emails. Coïncidentally, I have an iSPF-related question this morning. I find I want to write a REXX that can turn on or off a sort of test mode, by doing an ALTLIB and LIBDEF (one each). When this test mode is on, ALTLIB and LIBDEF are active and the commands I invoke will come from the ALTLIB library; when I'm done, I'll turn the test mode off and the REXX will clear the datasets. I can easily enough create an ISPF variable to track the current status. But is there a way to look at the ALTLIB and/or LIBDEF status without it? I mean, is there some command I can execute that'll determine whether an ALTLIB or LIBDEF statement is (so to speak) active? --- Bob Bridges, robhbrid...@gmail.com, cell 336 382-7313 /* School that day consisted of a field trip to see a live performance of "A Christmas Carol".

At one time ISPF-L was in the hands of Leonard Woren. Something indeed has gone wrong. I saw Leonard at SHARE in San Jose--along with his wife!!! Sounds like a job for Super Tom. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> On Behalf Of Tom Conley Sent: Friday, June 11, 2021 5:28 AM The ISPF-L listserver is broken, it's some kind of mailing list now. Pretty sure it's no longer hosted at Notre Dame. I had NOMAIL set on the listserver, now I get mailbombed whenever someone posts to it. ISPF-L should be put out of its misery. --- On 6/10/2021 5:39 PM, Bob Bridges wrote: > I'm a little incredulous that no one mentioned it already, but yes, there is > an ISPF-L listserv; check out ispf-l-l...@nd.edu. > > But it's not nearly as active as IBM-MAIN is, and you got excellent answers > here.
