A Blast From the Past

The z/VM Corner

A few dinosaurs from my past: tools I wrote for z/VM systems, downloadable from IBM's VM Tools page while actively working as a CMS Pipelines specialist:

Pipeserv
Retbuf
RSCStape
RSCSmdsk
RexXedit

In the unlikely event anyone should need a CMS Pipelines specialist, I'm still here, although I'd need time for refreshing my memory. The last time I touched VM was in 2003. Caveat emptor.
