Many of the items located on the tk4wish list are included.

IPCS works but since the "IPCS" command attempts execution directly from the linklib and not the CLIST, the invocation is "IPCS38".  There was a similar problem with ADVENT the adventure game.  Klingon now works but SUPRTREK suffers from post Fortran H coding so needs some fixing.

WATFIV is available as an alternative and I can't remember if I ran the SUPRTREK source through it and got it to work as a compile and go or not.

DSSDUMP/RESTORE should be included.  TSO access via TCAM and 2740/2741 can't remember which one right now.  Numerous updates to thing like RPF, REVIEW, TAPEMAP, DSAT, DSPACE and others which I can't remember now either.

I posted a message a while back which gave some info:

but HELP has probably not been updated for many items.
