    Allow attribute on LIST

    Often, I know that a register points to character data or to an array. I would like a way to specify the data type and a repetition count on the LIST command. It would be nice, but not essential, for the syntax to be modelled on DS syntax in HLASM.

    RDS (EQARMTD) and zOpenDebug are not currently sysplex-aware, so they can't redirect our debug request, and we cannot always pick up IMS transactions for debug.

    Support debugging specific steps inside a PROC

    Given the "Debug as" feature, the debug configuration fails to detect inherited steps when the JCL under test uses a PROC. Only the steps in the main JCL are provided for selection. I suggest to analyse or pre-process the JCL by the debug launch c...

    Switching between transactions to debug is no longer possible in the new version of Debugger

    A test user has registered many transactions, as sometimes one transaction is debugged and sometimes the other. In this case, however, only one transaction should be debugged. With the newly installed version of the debug tool (V16.02), it is now ...
