Type 3 and type 4 are the original open source. They were "field developed
programs." My recolle tion is that 3s were written by ibm field people and 4s
were written by customers.

Subject: old LISTUTIL program
I'm looking for an old IBM Type III or IV program for OS/360 named LISTUTIL,
which is described in a bitsavers.org copy of the 1971 manual "Catalog of
Programs for IBM System 360". The Type III and IV programs are described as
"for unrestricted distribution". Basically LISTUTIL printed a data set, or
portions thereof, in hex. With that modest function, it possibly still works on
modern systems, which means some shops might still use it.
I don't recall the exact layout it used, and I'm curious to see it again. When
I worked on an OS/MVT system a long time ago, it was widely used by the
programmers. I don't recall the exact layout it used, and I'm curious to see it
again if possible. I've looked at the CBTTAPE site, and did not find it there.
If anyone has a copy of LISTUTIL, in source or load module, would you consider
contributing it to the CBT Tape or sending me a copy? Even if you just have a
page of sample output that you could share with me, I would like to see it.
Bill
