Someone said: I couldn't _live_ with NULLS OFF. For example, when editing JCL (surely a non-PC and non-unix use), if I have NULLS OFF and attempt to insert a character, the keyboard locks and I must:
o Press RESET to unlock the keyboard. o Press INSERT to reassert that mode. o Move the cursor past the end of the line. o Press ERASE EOF. o Move the cursor back to the intended insertion point. o Insert my character. Yucch! (But wouldn't it be neat if pressing INSERT MODE momentarily set NULLS ON?) (Usually, I just set NULLS ON; do my insertion; and hope that it doesn't end up being reset somehow by ISPF.) This is CAUSED by having existing NULLS in your file. That is another reason why nobody needs NULLS ON.
