Migration from the Systems 36 and 38.

Some good examples here, and they don't take up much space.  The best
examples were removed after V3R1 :-)))

This allows you to create CL programs that will execute in prior releases.
It's not very big.

As the name implies, this is a better S/36 Migration Aid, IF you created
your S/36 stuff using normal conventions.  If you deviated from those
conventions, it's not much good.  Again, fairly small.

No clue.

This provides the *M36 environment.

You need this if you do IPDS printing!

No clue.

This is an optional part of OS/400, that is now free (it used to be
chargeable).  It is very important from a multi-system perspective.  It
gives you commands that allow concurrent save from system 1 and restore to
networked system 2, without media, save files or any of that.  A neat part
of the system.  Like anything else that's good about OS/400, IBM tries to
keep this story quiet.
