But yes, it's not strictly speaking a scripting language, more like a definition of
how to run a payload (such as a COBOL compile+link), no?
In any case the syntax is WEIRD compared to DCL or bash, you have to admit..
Yes, and yes. The syntax is basically ASSEMBLER syntax. IBM uses the assembler parser to
do a lot of things, and that lot of things looks like assembler source.
As for compile and link, there are prebuilt JCL procedures at SYS1.PROCLIB; you should not
bother to write the steps yourself, just invoke the procedure and do some DD override to
inject your source code and your listing output. My zOS instance is now offline... I can
put it up to search it for you.
