Bertram,

As others have pointed out, HI, TS and TE are perfectly valid immediate 
Rexx commands on VM/CMS (now z/VM), and maybe even to TSO. The 
implementation was modeled on the HX and HT immediate commands that 
you're familiar with.

As for VM/370, check out Hercules... I hear about it every once in a while.
