Well, adding support to the Stand-Alone version of Device Support Facilities for the integrated 3270 console (SYSG) makes sense, although it may be a hard sell. The integrated 3270 console is regarded as "a VM thing" in the minds of the mostly-MVS-oriented support team for Device Support Facilities. As far as I know, MVS itself doesn't support the integrated 3270 console. On the other hand, adding support to the Stand-Alone Program Loader (SAPL) for the integrated system console (the "Operating System Messages" window, or SYSC) doesn't make sense to me. The integrated system console is a line-mode device, like a 3215. The SAPL is a full-screen application. Getting it to run on a line-mode device would mean a complete redesign of the user interface. I don't think that's likely. I think that's why the integrated 3270 console was created in the first place. -- .''`. Stephen Powell : :' : `. `'` `-
