Any plans on updating for DOS/VSE? Not everyone runs MVS.

Hello HempCIO,

Thanks for your feedback Give me a list of changes you would like to see incorporated. I assume that you might want to see support for DTFs - what else would you like to see?

HempCIO commented 1 year ago

well besides the DTF's there are OPENR, PUTR, GETR macros. there is a manual for DOS.VSE assembly lang programming here is a link you might want to reference https://www.ibm.com/docs/he/zvm/7.2?topic=macros-vse-assembler-language-supported

Thanks for your input HempCIO. Yes, I am very well acquainted with that manual. I just wanted to see what changes you thought were important. I'll see when I can get to work on this. Also if you are so inclined please feel free to contribute yourself. That's what Open Source is all about.

At this time I do not wish to pursue this change. Even for users who only know DOS(VSE), I believe they will find the provided IO macros easy to learn and use.
