John McKown would like... The only enhancement that I, personally, would like would be for "free format" input into HLASM with _no_ line limits. Mainly because I keep my HLASM source in a UNIX file and, depending on "things", I use the "as" UNIX command to assemble it. I'm a bit of a UNIX partisan for "interactives". Being forced to use column alignment when I use a non-ISPF editor is a royal bother. Hum, it would also be nice if the tab character were a white space character outside of literals.
HLASM used to ship an input exit (ASMAXINV) that accepts variable-length input records. Check the Programmer's Guide. Making the tab character a white space should be easy, but might require an option of some sort. John Ehrman
