*** DISCLAIMER *** First special thanks to Sam Bass for providing me with the syntax information from his old "Network Job Entry Facility for JES2 Command Language Reference Summary (1977)"
The information contained within is based on the following:
I know that in creating these 63 WEB pages that document the syntax that (1) I have introduced errors just by attempting to type, (2) I have probably used incorrect terminology in some places -- many years back we gave the commands our own unofficial names, (3) sometimes when trying to remember back I get confused between HASP and JES2.
If you detect any errors or have any suggestions for updates or corrections please drop me a note at: tommy@tommysprinkle.com and I will make the updates. |
