This is a quick tutorial that covers CICS programming on "modern" (post-MVS/XA) MVS systems. Do note that some of the stuff I do requires sysprog rights, so, your mileage in getting stuff done may vary.

Here's what I ended up covering:
- Datasets for source and load modules to go in
- Editing the CICS startup JCL
- Basic COBOL hello example
- Compiling a CICS COBOL program
- Basics of BMS maps
- Assembling and linking maps
- Defining maps, programs, and transactions to CICS
- Displaying maps from a COBOL program
- Running transactions
