It seems to me that if they have a 12 year old mainframe, they've probably
been working on the 'modernization' or 'migration off of' for 10 years.
Something tells me that wasn't what they were planning on. (Insert your

K Q still works for MCS and SMCS consoles. It never worked for MCS
extended consoles.
ok then when I used it last 5 years ago, it was obviously not on an MCS
extended console . how does one deal with the problem when it's showing

The 'K Q' command is no longer suported for EMCS consoles on 1.9. This is
