You might want to look at using LOCTR instructions to group data areas
together. My entry macro includes code similar to this:
J BEGIN
DATA LOCTR
DC C'Program identifiers, etc'
CODE LOCTR
BEGIN DS 0H
Later in the code, if I want to define a data area, I can include:
(instructions)
DATA LOCTR
DC (whatever)
CODE LOCTR
(More instructions)
Then at the end of the program, I code
DATA LOCTR
LTORG
All of the data areas are then grouped by the assembler at the beginning of
the program, covered by a base register that points to the beginning.
