Announcing: RMS/Spool v11.35

Mantissa Corporation is pleased to announce the availability of our latest release, RMS/Spool version 11.35. All request modifications and enhancements made to previous releases have now been fully integrated into the newest iteration of RMS/Spool.

Here is a brief outline of the changes and enhancements made to v11.35 since the previous release:

* TCP/IP Printing -- Added capability to print directly to IP addressable printers and local Windows printers using TCP/IP. Support also includes the ability to download reports to a PC directory or a DESKTOP inbox. PC nodes (and the windows local printer ) will require the Mantissa PC client.

* Catalogued Datasets -- Added capability to use catalogued datasets for all extents in the RMS/Spool repository. The allocations of multiple SPOOL extents can now be made with catalogued datasets. 

* Storage Improvements --Further progress has been made to move control blocks above the line to reduce RMS/Spool's below the line footprint and increase the capacity of the system.

* Enhanced Checkpoint Processing --Faster subsystem throughput.

* JCL changes -- Several members of the install JCL data set have been modified to reflect current releases.

* Broader Multi-lingual Support -- New addition to Spool language support set. Help files are now available in Spanish as well as English, French, German, Swedish and Danish.

* Documentation - All relevant product documentation has been edited and updated in accordance with v11.35 changes, and is now available on CD. Documentation may also be downloaded within Mantissa's Customer Space.

* Purge enhancements -- More efficient process for reducing system overhead.

* New parms to support TCP/IP printing -- Device type DESKTOP will continue to use VTAM support. Device type DESKTOPI will use new TCP/IP support. New devices IPPRINT, PCPRINT and PCDIR nodes will use TCP/IP support.

Want to reduce overhead and go greener?

Cut down on paper reports with the new release of RMS/DeskTop. Instead of routing all mainframe reports out to VTAM -- and now thanks to the new version of RMS/Spool -- TCP/IP printers, why not route some of them to a PC instead? Skip the paper-chase altogether. We can help...

For a limited time you will receive 150 copies of our client-server productivity tool, RMS/DeskTop 3.23, at no extra charge upon either the first-time purchase of RMS/Spool or the reinstatement of an RMS/Spool maintenance agreement which has lapsed or been cancelled.
