Good to know, thank you.
BTW, Tom said "I can't imagine working without it."
Well, I've been working for ~25 years without it, so I can imagine that.
Not only me - I did not work with anyone who was using that tool, as a
consultant I visited several shops and met many mainframers.
To be well understood: I do not criticise PDS86, absolutely. This is
just another example of "YMMV" or just another point of view. And I want
to learn about the tool and maybe start using it. :-)

Possibly the only file on the CBT that has its own web page, and it certainly
deserves it. I can't imagine working without it. Thanks to John Kalinich and
all those who came before.
