If it's VSE, you need to post on the VSE list. (I am on the VSE list and
don't remember seeing you asking there.)

Thank you for trying...
DRET (or maybe D.R.E.T.) is some ancient VSE program product (or maybe one
of those PRPQ or whatever thingys). It sort of reminds me of linux 'dd' -
take any input, move it to any output, with any of a gazillion assorted
manipulations/mangles along the way.
Without a manual, there is very little chance of getting correct syntax.
Thanks!

I had the same question.. what’s DRET? It took a but of Googling,
and that turned up:
http://www.ibm.st/ibm/vse/136294
which showed:
****** 5798-DBC COPYRIGHT IBM CORP. 1979 LICENSED MATERIAL –
PROGRAM PROPERTY OF IBM ******
DRET GENERAL PURPOSE UTILITY * U289TBL
More searches for 5798-DBC didn’t turn on anything useful in the
limited time I had remaining.

Shimon,
Some of us old packrats have a lot of manuals and other assorted
items. DRET is not a term I am familiar with. It is apparently an
acronym for something. Perhaps if we (I) knew, it might ring some
bells on a possible location of that manual you are looking for.

Hi,
We (mainframe sysprogs) have been forced to relocate our
offices several times over the last couple of years, and just
discovered that we seem to have lost something.
Does anyone out there know if it is possible today to get
a DRET manual? We still have and use DRET in many VSE
job streams, but if you have ever seen it, you know we NEED
that manual. ;-)
If you don't know what I am talking about - thanks anyway.
Thanks for any advice,
Shimon
