Another question, purely out of interest:
Can the old MVS/SP code still run unchanged?
I reminisced with a friend about the day he whinged about a 64k code
segment size on Intel micros and I out-whinged him with a 4k code CSECT :-)
Can a modern z/OS installation still assemble, link and run the old stuff,
such as the typical local utilities we all saw:
MYPROG CSECT
MYPROG RMODE ANY
MYPROG AMODE 24
STM 14,12,12(13)
USING ...
If so, that's quite an achievement, both in the changes and the flexibility
of the original design!
