I checked again.  There's a download link in the menu on the left hand side
that points to:

http://home.gci.net/~mike-noel/KICKS/kicks-download.htm

And, that page lists the link for the current version, which at the moment
is:

http://www.noelalaska.com/cgi-bin/kicks-v1r0m0/kicks.pl

That link takes one to a registration page, which caused me to not bother
with trying KICKS for quite a while.  Curiosity finally got the better of me
and I registered so I could give KICKS a try.  If one registers at the above
page, they'll receive the actual download link via an e-mail.

Between the registration/licensing hassle and the unnatural feel with it
running under TSO I doubt I'll do much with it.  With a proper CICS clone
one should be able to do things like close individual files to run batch
jobs without having to shut the CICS clone down, sign on to multiple
sessions with the same user ID, etc.

From some of the recent discussion I've seen here it looks like I might be
in violation of the license by talking about KICKS here.  Oh well, if my
license gets revoked, I guess I can live with that.  It's beginning to seem
like it's more trouble than it's worth.
