For some reason, people insist on calling a CRT with an amber phosphor a green screen. IBM probably had color devices for the military or for process control before the 3279, but I know of no commercial color CRT terminal before it. IBM had color support for DIDOCS, ISPF and XEDIT pretty early.

My first color terminal was a 3279 in the early 1980s. I think we had both a model 2 and model 3. I don't recall if they had the extended color feature. As far as I know the IBM 3279 was IBMs first color terminal. Thanks..   Paul Feller GTS Mainframe Technical Support -Original

Colours on screen (mainframe history question)

2021-02-23 Thread Radoslaw Skorupka
Simple question: As we know "green terminal" is colorful. For me it was "always" colorful, because I started with colorful CRT display. However it raises question: when the colours were introduced? I mean ISPF, but it can be any other application, like MVS console or z/VM XEDIT, whatever.

Most IT auditors I've dealt with recently cut their IT teeth on non-mainframe platforms and have no clue as to how the mainframe works. Therefore, they push for rules that are silly, limit productivity, and even create exposures that don't exist on the mainframe. Even the young one I worked

Your faux auditors may be a RPITA, but a *qualified* auditor is a joy forever, should you be so fortunate as to be audited by one. They will find things that actually do need fixing, and will make it easier to get management buy-in for what needs to be done. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz

I'm not sure what you are asking. There is nothing special about low level qualifiers, and a symbol is a symbol no matter where it occurs. If you're asking about a catalog alias, that's a high level qualifier by default, or multiple qualifiers, not never a LLQ. If you really are asking about
