...I'm coming in a bit late to the game, but if you want a premier JCL tool, check out J-Man. Some of its features are:automated formatting statement reordering (including specific keywords on a specific line within the JCL statement)
keyword reordering validation of use of comments (or not) verification of match of executable program (in the PGM= field) to the source object verification of required statements (or not) verification of ALL standards AND naming conventions Identification of JCL objects that are never used (an optional feature) validation that various DCB characteristics are valid and for those applicable, the values match the source program automated cloning and manipulation for multiple target environments This is just a short list of some of the capabilities of J-Man and some of the available optional features.
