Re: The old VM/ESA CMS GUI - Does it still live?
Hello! Sadly Jeff, I am prepared to admit to nothing. However seeing the webpage brought about an interesting thing. About the time it surfaced I participated in a round of discussions concerning IBM's attempts to write software for both sides via a GUI. I believe it was called Value Age, or something of a sort, its way before Eclipse. Anyway the page more or less confirmed it when it showed that the only downloads for it were for OS/2 and Windows 95, which certainly agreed with the resulting discussions. Incidentally I did see a series of other related downloads, some of them were in fact tagged as coming from this august gathering. Just for fun I am tempted to assemble a virtual machine containing either OS/2 or Win95 and see what does happen and why. --- Gregg C Levine hansolofal...@att.net This signature is not the same one.

Greetings folks, Some recent discussion brought to mind the old CMS GUI Facility that shipped with VM/ESA 2.1 - and now I'm in a position where I might for the first time actually be able to configure a z/VM system to allow me to play with the beast, I got to wondering if it even still exists. The best I've been able to find in the way of IBM documentation is: http://www.vm.ibm.com/gui/ I found an interesting reference to a 2004 z/VM GUI project - http://web2.clarkson.edu/projects/cosi/zTeam/zvmgui/ but alas that seems to have since sunk without trace. So ... a few questions ... Anybody using it? Anybody prepared to admit they're using it? Anybody know if it's still maintained in any current form? This is purely a personal learning exercise triggered by the aforementioned conversation and my recent exposure to young sysprogs ( 25 years old) who tend to love what CP and CMS can do but fall about laughing whenever the user interface is discussed. All comments gratefully received. Regards Jeff

Problem of duplicated messages --Solved!
Hello! How many of you today, are seeing duplicated messages? Even those you know you've read and commented on last week, and even last month? If you look towards the bottom of each message you will see a blurb not unlike the ones some of you end up with on your own, it's from an Australian based firm called TABCORP. And the headers do indeed reflect that, further down after the ones created by UARK, and the ones created by my ISP for example the clew was there. It gave the man's name and more information about the firm. I should say that by the term further down this does not mean that but it simply means that the information was indeed stored there in its usual places. Can we have the List manager, or List Owner investigate please? I should also mention that the earlier paragraph reflects my opinions only towards this problem and does not reflect any opinion I might have towards the firms that each of you work for. I might add I do not have a negative one towards each of you at all. Just towards problem firms like TABCORP. -- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Force will be with you. Always. Obi-Wan Kenobi
TABCORP Stunt was RE: Updated Community VM Redbook outline posted
Hello! I presume Adam you might have missed my earlier statement to the list that explains this, without including the headers from TABCORP in my post? Oh and by the way also requests something of a sort for the List Management person to do exactly that? -- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Force will be with you. Always.

It looks like mail.tabcorp.com.au is the culprit here. If that's impossible, maybe the mailing list should suspend delivery to tabcorp.com.au until they get it fixed? Adam
Re: OT: And now, a note from our moderator regarding Acronym Silliness
Hello! Jon? What's wrong with a foam rubber penguin? I have here several penguins, including one appropriately dressed for work, including a blue blazer, and a blue bow tie. I, too, go along with the assertion, You can be young once, but you can be immature forever. Solomon Short said that, courtesy author David Gerrold.

Hello! Ed, I'm on Outlook XP. And I see them. Plus the usual stuff that your services add, and even the instruction spaces from the list server's workers.
