Hello,
where just in the process to migrate our z/OS systems to V2.4. As you know, on
z/OS V2.4 BookManager/READ isn't available anymore. But unfortunately some
developers come up with a requirement to read some very old homegrown
documentation files (.BOO files). So my question is, are there any free tools
available to read and/or convert these files to PDF or HTML?
BOO files can be still read using existing tools like IBM Softcopy
Reader which works nicely under Win10 x64 and older Windows versions.
You can still use IBM Library Reader which is 16-bit application and
will not work under 64-bit Windows, but you can run it under old Windows
running under Virtual Box or other tool. Personally I prefer Library
Reader, but it is simpler to use Softcopy Reader.
Note: both tools were available for download and IMHO you can still use
it, even if IBM removed it from webpage. If you need a copy, just look
for older documentation on DVD or CD.
I hope you don't want to use BOO files under z/OS. ;-)
