Re: CHARLOTTe Updates to WW2CORE REXX
Thanks a lot for putting the updated Charlotte package out on the download web page, Perry. Perhaps the source code for Charlotte could be placed there as well, for folks that would like to hack at it Have a good one.

Re: CHARLOTTe Updates to WW2CORE REXX
Many thanks to Jonathon Scott for updating and maintaining CHARLOTTe and to Perry Ruiter for uploading it to the IBM Download site at http://www.vm.ibm.com/download/packages/ The HTML entities I asked for (single and double quotes) have been added and are working fine. hanks again guys. /Fran Hensler at Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania USA for 47 years mailto:f...@zvm.sru.edu http://zvm.sru.edu/~fjh +1.724.738.2153 "Yes, Virginia, there is a Slippery Rock" -- On Mon, 14 Feb 2011 22:37:00 -0800 Perry Ruiter said: > The most current level of Charlotte is now available via the VM download >library.

Re: CHARLOTTe Updates to WW2CORE REXX
The most current level of Charlotte is now available via the VM download library. It's been over 8 years since the download library was refreshed and in that time a number of problems have been fixed and enhancements made. I encourage everyone to upgrade to the current fix level. If anyone requires the source package contact me directly ...

Re: CHARLOTTe Updates to WW2CORE REXX
Dale is correct -- the code is in WW2PARSC. I don't have a C compiler. I now have the source code and Jonathon Scott has already made the updates I wanted. He sent the updated package to Perry Ruiter to upload to the IBM Download site. I got a note from Perry that he is very busy and can't get to it just now.

Whoever "compiled" the WW2XCORE Rexx code specified the SLINE compiler option, so the original Rexx source is embedded in the module. It should be possible, but probably a PITA, to extract that original source into a file that could be updated.

The code you would need to change is written in C and is called WW2PARSC. It is a rewrite of the REXX code originally supplied in WW2PARSE REXX. It looks like it would be easy to change it, but you woul d need a C compiler, of course. I don't have one so I can't help you. WW2PARSC was originally written and maintained by Jonathan Scott of IBM UK. It looks like he is still around and he might have a more current version with what you need. WW2PARSC is maintained with a control file and updates, (like all good VM/CMS code should be!).
