This group is for all folks running the original IBM VM/370 Release 6 operating system (or later (e.g. VMTCE (Community Edition)) on Hercules. Like the other early IBM operating systems this version has always been in the public domain and so can be freely distributed. The base version as supplied by IBM is lacking in many facilities. IBM solved this by providing additional extension products which were licensed and so are not available. There are however many user enhancements available which can be installed. In addition, in order to get users up and running quickly updated "releases" of VM/370 included the most popular updates are available for download, so novices can start to learn VM without having to delve into the system internals. It is intended that this wiki will provide information on the base release and these updates.
The available versions are here :-

It seems that the previous thread on EE is difficult to handle after it has reached more than 100 posts. If this helps to get more feedback, here is a new thread with a slightly changed name.

You are correct. I was remembering the MVS/RPF change command. I wish I could use just one editor across all Operating Systems :-(

Re: CMS BREXX Question
#VMCE
What is the equivalent for & since BREXX doesn't like that? This drives me nuts, since I expect this to work. By-the-bye, the & works on VM/SP 5 at SDF.org.
