Category:Z/OS Tools

Tools that can turn out code for OS/2 from an IBM Z/OS (aka OS/390), ESA/390, CMS or MVS environment (Cross compilation or other cross platform capabilities) or tools that can turn out Z/OS, MVS etc. code from an eCS environment, or have some OS/2 specific utility or support even though they are primarily Z/OS executables. Also tools that allow interoperation-ability between OS/2 based systems and Z/OS systems be that in an interactive way such as networking and communications or simpler tools that allow the use or viewing of OS/2 related file formats in a Z/OS environment.

In addition tools that are or were available for both OS/2 and Z/OS or MVS may be tagged as "Z/OS Tools" as well even though the Z/OS executable has no specific OS/2 related utility or function. This is because merely the existence of the same tool on two or more platforms may not just help in porting an application from one system to another even if there is a version mismatch, it also help in the planning of a multi-target project that makes, or potentially makes use of the tool, effectively making the tool a part of the target API by proxy.
