Re: TEXT file doubt

The product was $DSORT on IBM s/3 (prior to 1980), then #DSORT on s/34, not a 
part of CPF for s/38 but for migrating customers available as 's/3 Conversion 
Reformat Utility', and last FMTDTA on AS/400 and iSeries. The spec's has to my 
knowledge not changed in all that time.

It's long time outdated. Only problem is that it's ligthning fast (from the 
days when we could do serious data processing on a 300 KHz 8080 8 bit processor 
and 8 Kb internal storage). There is a frontend SRTFILE that takes the troubles 
of writing the cryptic spec's - I couldn't find it however on the Internet.
