Hi Charles,
Where is this design change documented?
Thanks and regards,
David

That was true once upon a time but has not been true since about 1995. IND$FILE uses a
3270 sub-protocol called "structured fields" and can transfer up to 32K of
binary data in a block.
It's still single-task and half-duplex, and layered into TSO, all of which
makes it a lot slower than FTP, but it is NOT 3270 screen oriented.

Hi Gil,
If IND$FILE replaces FTP, it would be slow beyond belief.
The way that IND$FILE works is that it reads a screenfull (24*80=1920
Bytes) at a time and deals with the this buffer.
I cannot imagine the time it would take to Upload/Download a large TRS
Dataset.
