Thanks. Great suggestion. I will do that when I am done. I am mentally
committed to completing this, but it won't be this week. (Gotta get the talk
ready for SHARE!) I have all of the tools and methodology I think. I am a
Wikipedia member and have done edits before.

This was bugging me so I got a start on a document. I have a table now (with
some question marks in it) that correlates Model numbers, the HLASM
MACHINE() option, and the XL C/C++ ARCH() option, and also the Enterprise
PL/I option ARCH() which (believe it or not!!!) is apparently exactly
BTDT already. Try the attached Rexx (genoptbl.txt) (at least I hope it gets
attached -- I will paste it into a new reply if it doesn't make it to the list).

It is not a secret that XL C/C++ and Enterprise PL/I share the same

ARCH levels are the same.
Which leads one to wonder if a METAL option for PL/I exists,
I should guess that the question whether there will ever be a METAL
PL/I is more IBM-political than technical.

I don't know whether Tony is the notional culprit or I am, but I can
very easily be induced to shut up/avoid your topics, and I shall now
do so.

A suggestion: if there are some volunteers to collect and organize the
information, how about putting it on Wikipedia where it can be maintained
and publicly accessed easily going forward, together with links to other

Thanks. Good list. IBM Canada does some cool stuff.
Sheesh! Add G-levels to MACHINE() and ARCH() levels.
All the information is out there. I could do a document that answered these
questions if I didn't already have a day job.

Thanks. Helpful info here: http://www.tachyonsoft.com/inst390o.htm
If I had nothing better to do I would do a Web page with two tables:
1. Every mnemonic and the HLASM MACHINE() level at which it became
available. Source would be HLASM OPTABLE(LIST).
2. Every model number and the corresponding
Is there a single good source for the relationship among specific
mnemonics/opcodes, model numbers, the HLASM option MACHINE(), and the C/C++
option ARCH()?
For example, STCKF is documented as The store-clock-fast facility may be
