Re: #VMCE #rexx EE goes XEDIT - compiling a wish list #VMCE #rexx
see https://github.com/SanLorenzo59/mecaff/commits/AGPLv3_WIP The ALL command is implemented in a macro style as proof of concept. Note that *extern int execCmd (...)* calls itself through the ALL

Re: #VMCE #rexx EE goes XEDIT - compiling a wish list #VMCE #rexx
Hi Martin, I started working on VM/370 over 3 years ago to update a platform independent REXX implementation into one with the capabilities present in early VM/SP . I had to write the CMS system

Re: #VMCE #rexx EE goes XEDIT - compiling a wish list #VMCE #rexx
Not to go too far off topic, but you can write REXX full screen applications on VMCE 1.1.2 with calls to the old SAS Rexx Function Package. The new HELP EXEC is written in REXX. Bob wrote:

Re: #VMCE #rexx EE goes XEDIT - compiling a wish list #VMCE #rexx
CMS HELP was based on XEDIT since VM/SP 1. FILELIST arrived with VM/SP 2, EXEC 2 was used ( still EXEC 2 on LCM+L's VM/SP 5 but (compiled) REXX on z/VM 6.4). REXX arrived with VM/SP 3, XEDIT received

Re: Do I have a looping issue?
Simple answer: No. In zArch there are arguably cases where it sort-of, kind-of, does. But that would be way off topic for this thread, where we're not talking about zArch. Tony H.

Nothing really modern in the usual sense but I think about the ability to make fullscreen apps with it - don¡¯t know how modern that exactly is, and driven by the fact that getting IOS3270 to work

I quite like https://idcp.marist.edu/documents/33945/44724/Assembler.V2.alntext+V2.00.pdf/ad61965e-8485-65e1-f385-e5cd56f08c63?t=1551806232272 but doing it all in C would probably attract more

Re: #VMCE #rexx EE goes XEDIT - compiling a wish list #VMCE #rexx
What makes XEDIT *modern* ? VM/SP 3, when REXX and EXTRACT were added ? When (if?) VM/SP 5 at LCM+L ( tty.livingcomputers.org:24 ) is up: which *modern* features are missing ?

Martin said, I think we are overwhelmed with all the recent activity in this discussion group, and missed your note. I for one would rather see/use the code than look at a screen shot. The difference

Fully agreed. I need to acquire more knowledge to enter this area. In the 1990s I was a very experienced professional assembler programmer on the Motorola M680x0 family. Used on bare metal including

Re: #VMCE #rexx EE goes XEDIT - compiling a wish list #VMCE #rexx
Hi Ren¨¦, What I want to see in a full screen editor for VMCE, is the ability to use REXX as a MACRO language for the editor so we can implement new editor commands in REXX and issue 'address XEDIT'

Re: #VMCE #rexx EE goes XEDIT - compiling a wish list #VMCE #rexx
I think it goes without saying that we would very much like to see Rexx compatibility for EE and a more XEDIT-like working - although it is not at all bad at the moment, just a bit different. Because

Re: Do I have a looping issue?
Real hardware has no mechanism to report to an operator any interruption. REAL hardware only reports interruptions to the running program, an OS in this case. So, no, real hardware will not report

Re: #VMCE #rexx EE goes XEDIT - compiling a wish list #VMCE #rexx
Of course its desirable to have as much of XEDIT as possible under VM/370 CE, except of course it limits the memory available. I tend to use EE to work on CE. It would also be nice to see betas etc.
