I am looking for details on file transfer program ‘IND$FILE’ that can be issued in CICS on z/OS. I understand IND$FILE in CICS can be used to download the contents of a TSQ to a PC. In this context, I would like to know –

– Are there any reference manuals for IND$FILE?

– Which IBM system library has this executable?

– Can we invoke IND$FILE transaction or program from native CICS screen?

– Considering IND$FILE as a black box, can we get the input & output parameters that this program receives/gives?



Any other details that may be available on IND$FILE is solicited.

No. IND$FILE can only be invoked by a terminal emulation program.

As far as I know, IND$FILE is not documented.
