Does anybody know of other characters that are problematical in the TSO command?

Thanks for your comments and suggestions! My colleague Bud, on copy, from development team, is investigating the issue. We'd like to understand more about the issue to ensure we cover it properly. Are there other special characters which have an issue? Is this only seen with parameter lists? You mentioned the concern is general. So we are wondering if you are aware of other specific cases? It would be very helpful if you could provide a couple of specific examples. Thanks again for writing to us! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: Seymour J Metz <sme...@gmu.edu<mailto:sme...@gmu.edu>> To: "RCF <mhvr...@us.ibm.com<mailto:mhvr...@us.ibm.com>>" <mhvr...@us.ibm.com<mailto:mhvr...@us.ibm.com>> Date: 05/11/2020 06:34 PM Subject: [EXTERNAL] RCF ISPF User'sGuide z/OS Version 2 Release 4 ISPF User's Guide Volume I, SC19-3627-40, and z/OS Version 2 Release 4 ISPF User's Guide Volume II, SC19-3628-40, do not specify the syntax of the TSO command. There are commands that will execute correctly from the READY prompt but not as operands of the TSO command, and absent documentation it is impossible to know whether that is working as designed. The specific issue that prompted this RCF is the handling of unmatched apostrophes, but the concern is more general. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)
