TLMS Display a VMF record under PDF 3.4
This program reads the VMF record for the
first volume of a tape data set, formats it
pretty much like the CATLTSO command, then
invokes BRIF to display the result. May only
be used as a line command on the Data Set
List panel (Option 3.4 of ISPF/PDF).
TMS Display a TMC record under PDF 3.4
Same as TLMS, but for CA1/TMS 5.0
