J. Chiampi can also go to docs.hp.com for Nonstop information.
From what I remember SCOBOL was part of the Pathway/TS
(CICS-like) product, it had screen handling capabilities. NonStop COBOL
was COBOL-85, from what I remember.
No JCL on Tandem, they had TACL(Tandem Application Control Language)
more like Unix Scripts.

I would think that posting this in
comp.lang.cobol
MIGHT bet a better answer than in IBM-MAIN
