Oops. Don't you mean "MVC OUTBUF+1(L'OUTBUFF-1),OUTBUF"? I'm sure you don't want to zap the byte immediately after OUTBUF. What is "MVC2", another MACRO?
Yes, as mentioned in this thread. Why not just code the literal move "MVC OUTBUF,
=(L'OUTBUF)'this is a sample'" like it's been done for the past 40 years?
That method creates large literals, and wastes addressability. My usual method is to have an output subroutine, and if called with the common output line, clear that after printing. Reduces needed literal size, and makes code generally simpler. Gerhard Postpischil Bradford, VT
