ALCS goes one step further. Message fields are tagged to make parsing even
easier, eg:
DXC081E DB2 CAF entry point load failed- Abend code AC-X'abend_code'Reason code
RSC-X'reason_code'
Best wishes / Mejores deseos / Meilleurs vœux

As I said before, MVS automation doesn't need regexp. It has message ids that
make simple *abc* pattern matching sufficient. MVS has message IDs with well
defined messages. Look at any product messages manual. Look at messages in
Quikref.
MVS automation gives you direct access to fields. With non-MVS automation
potentially dealing with thousands of products, do you think they usually deal
with fields or do you think they are dealing with a single message.
