Do you mean only that IBM has changed the underlying hardware used to implement
what they called Machine Interface (MI) on the S/38, or do you mean that they
have changed the MI itself?

Maybe you are forgetting the whole backwards compatibility thing.
Do you really think IBM is worried about a bunch of hobbyists writing code or
reliving their youth on mainframes because they have some "lost" revenue in
that area?
You can join developerworks and license z/PDT, which is what
No, it works with z/OS 2.4, well, there is a small issue, but it's being
resolved.

Thanks Tim.
I can't imagine being comfortable writing new code, at least, for a compiler
that has not been updated in 35 years, but maybe that's just me.
Now that we know what languages are still supported, I am still curious if
anyone out there is actually still using them, and if so, why.

Ron,
Your shop has other competitive product to DFSORT and yet you request the
solution for DFSORT. The control cards may run fine with both products,
but the least you can do is mention the right product. Moreover this is

Not sure I have anything for OS/2 but on my Linux systems I use x3270. You
can configure the screen sizes as well as the keyboard layout to suit what
you need and it all runs fine under KDE
