The utility never sees the "/*" from the terminal. The GET or READ-
and-CHECK
will take the EODAD exit. See the TSO/E Programming Services
manual, in the
chapter about "Using BSAM or QSAM for Terminal I/O".

8.5 End-of-File (EOF) for Input Processing
The sequential access method GET and CHECK terminal routines
recognize /*
from the terminal as an end-of-file (EOF). The EODAD exit in the
data control
block is taken for the EOF condition. If no EODAD exit has been
specified, and
an EOF has been signaled from the terminal, the job abends with a
system
code of 337.

Bill,
Thanks I should have looked there (or remembered it) I spent quite a
few hours looking over the TMP for an issue that I never did figure
out. But I did come to the conclusion that it was WAD (for the
problem I was attempting to figure out). This was the PCF IKJEFT01
version. I think (its been many many years) that I was attempting to
figure out the how it parsed out /* and */ out of the command string
or else it was in IKJPARSE which I don't think I had the source for.
