Does anyone remember JTIP (JES TSO Interface PROGRAM).  It was from UICC.  You could SHOW held jobs in the queue with a full screen display FETCH held output also in full screen as well.  Can't remember much more except that I still have the PTF with full source code.  Don't know if any copyright covers this code.  It had an SVC to use for accessing the queue if I remember correctly.
