Chapter 1 introduces you to MVS (both MVS/XA and MVS/ESA)...good background no matter how much MVS experience you've had. It also shows you how TSO/ISPF relates to MVS, so you'll understand how to use ISPF to control the operating system functions.
The remaining 7 chapters teach you all the specifics of using ISPF for everyday programming tasks. You'll learn:
-- how to edit and browse a data set
-- how to use the ISPF utilities to manage your data sets and libraries how to compile, link, and execute a program interactively
-- how to debug your COBOL programs interactively
-- how to process batch jobs in a background region
-- how to manage your background jobs more easily by using the Spool Display & Search Facility (SDSF) to browse JES2 queues
-- how to use member parts lists to track the use of subprograms and Copy members within program libraries
-- how to manage hierarchical program libraries with the Library Management Facility (LMF) or with the more sophisticated Software Con
