To give them the benefit of the doubt, it might be that person was maybe confused about the reason for not sharing the source code with you. In some cases the source is owned by another organization (inside our outside IBM) who do not wish to disclose it. Or it may be written in a language that IBM does not expect you to read or write (although this one smells like compiled REXX code). Or maybe the person could not find it and did not read enough History of VM to understand how sensitive we are in this aspect. ;-) If you're willing to read another language, IIRC there's something similar with the s390-tools in Linux and that prolly ships with source. -Rob
