OK. It's a command. But which host command environments support it? Is
SUBCOM supported by only the TSO and MVS host command environments? If so, I'd
like to see the word "only" in the sentence quoted above, and "That is" omitted
because it seems to imply that the second sentence is a consequence or a
paraphrase of the first.
Which of the following work, and why (not)?
address TSO 'SUBCOM TSO '
address MVS 'SUBCOM MVS '
address ISREDIT 'SUBCOM ISREDIT'
address ISPEXEC 'SUBCOM ISPEXEC'
address SDSF 'SUBCOM SDSF '
address SH 'SUBCOM SH '

If it's a TSO command, why is it not documented in the TSO command Ref?
Where are the commands supported in the MVS command environment listed?
