I have a Rexx EXEC that runs under z/OS UNIX using ADDRESS TSO to start ISPF LM Services running an EXEC to update a PDS with ISPF serialization. All background.
And another that uses the SDSF Rexx API to unload JES spool to UNIX files. I truly wish there were a way for a UNIX process with X11 tunneling to pop up in a user's desktop an x3270 session. Or several. We very successfully use NFS to mount Solaris filesystems on z/OS and z/OS Classic data sets as directories on desktops. /etc/startup.mk has suffix rules for: # Suffix definitions E:= # Executable O:=.o # Object S:=.s # Assembler A:=.a # Archive (library) P:=.p # Pascal F:=.f # Fortran But, ironically, not COBOL. Small wonder that dinosaurs loathe z/OS UNIX. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
