Hey!  Microfiche was not just for the /34!  I worked for Zink and Katich when I was just a babe, and I remember going through the S/38 microfiche.  Ah, those were the days... patching IBM programs to make our own commands.

Jon,

Oh no, PL/MI is nothing like assembler (which I'm well aware you know).
I'm talking 370 and (does anyone remember it?) the S/34. Oh those were the
days, microfiche for the operating system and away you go :)

"Assembler" as in PL/MI Bruce ? I suspect that even MI would be too high
level if you really want to bit twiddle!

Interestingly had the original question been about C or MI I could
understand it since they still have utility. It was ancient RPG that got me
and (at the time) I didn't know we were talking V5R4.
