Hi !

Up until now, all our classes have been PC based, next semester we are
going to start Assembler on the mainframe under VM/SP, CMS rel 6. Some
of us would like to get a head start, so here are some questions:

1.)  For assembler under VM, what are the appropriate IBM manuals to
     acquire (references other than the IBM manuals will also be
     appreciated).

2.)  How does one generate an assembler dump, both on screen and in
     a print file (what options, is debug the only way, etc.)

3.)  How is the snap macro used correctly?

4.)  What other diagnostic tools/techniques should we use/investigate ?

All help will be very much appreciated !

                           Thank you,

                           Paul Vellano
