I created the group to ensure continuity, but the old Yahoo MUSIC group wasn't very active anyway.

You are welcome to contribute. :-)

When you say "extra material", what do you have in mind?

Rene FERLAND, Montreal?

Books or manuals would be great.?

kind Regards Clive Hudson

Clive,

I am sorry to insist but the available documentation comprises: a guide for new users, a complete user reference, an administrator guide, a complete administration reference, and a few more manuals. What else would you like?

Best regards,

Rene FERLAND, Montreal

Thanks Joe

I already have music/sp up and running. I’ve also looked carefully at the manuals. I was just wondering if there was extra material out there

Kind Regards

Programming Manuals would be nice. ?The existing documentation is good, I was just wondering if there was anything else. By the way your Videos on moshix channel are really good. Feel free to do more Music/sp. I feel that this is an interesting operating system.?

kind Regards Clive Hudson

ps Are the existing instructions for Hercules usage with music/sp still relevant ?

The Hercules instructions are outdated since it goes back to the time cygwin was needed for it. The original text still contains a lot of useful information. I know how to go through it,? ignoring the obsolete stuff but a?"refresher" could be useful.

Mark,

I'm here.

I see 795 messages from this list, but I have my local archive from the old
Yahoo list going back to 2004.

Not much. I can't remember how long it's been since I tried doing anything
with Music. Actually I haven't done much with any OSes under Hercules
lately. Most recently I've been exploring NOS under the DtCYBER emulator,
and before that Multics under the DPS8/M SIMH emulator and PRIMOS under the
Prime emulator. So many emulators and OSes, so little time. :-)

What's the definition of a legacy system? One that works!

The programming facilities available on MUSIC/SP are/were mostly available
on MVS and VM/CMS as well. Manuals for Assembler F, Fortran G, REXX etc
on other platforms would be applicable to MUSIC/SP too. There may be some
MUSIC specific details for these langauges in the online help on MUSIC,
especially REXX as the I/O is different on MUSIC to the other platforms.

Depends on what instructions you are looking at. I doubt there have been
any changes to "production" Hercules 3.x that would affect using MUSIC/SP.


I have patches for Hercules that enable the MUSIC/SP TCP/IP networking to
(mostly) work when running under Hercules. You need to be able to build
Hercules from source to use this, probably on Linux or some Unix variant.

There is an experimental set of patches adding VM IUCV and VM TCPIP to Hercules 3.x:



I'm using it for running MUSIC/SP with TCP/IP on Linux and MacOSX.
