KICKS v1r1m0 now available at
http://home.gci.net/~mike-noel/KICKS/kicks-download.htm
What's New?
* User's Guide migrated to the web.
* KEDF (a debugging facility similar to CEDF in real CICS).
* KICKS now runs in batch as well as TSO.
* Many of the 'supplied' transactions (KSGM, KSSF, KSMT, KEDF, etc) will use larger screens when available (3270 mod 3, mod 4's).
* Printing and job submission supported.
* Screen handling improved in several subtle but important ways.
* WRITE OPERATOR (including REPLY option) implemented.
* SYSLIB facility in Cobol preprocessor
Unfortunately GCCMVS support didn't quite make it, but with this release Ill change to more of a level-set distribution scheme. As I test changes to the code I'll post them as a new version of the zip file and look to the semiannual releases to 'consolidate' these already posted changes. The web based documentation will be updated on the fly, with the versions incorporated in the level-set and interim zip files as more stable reference. Therefore - look for GCCMVS support well before December!
Enjoy!
