That's kinda scary.  But I've occasionally allocated
a temp DS to SYSIN; EXECIO DISKW to it; then used as
input to the next command.

I have sometimes cut this down to a single step by starting the
SYSTSIN with a REPRO.  Has anyone ever submitted a Requirement
for support of instream data in PROCs?  Or for instream Rexx/
CLIST source?

BTW, did I lately notice by accident that PEND is now optional
in library JCL PROCs (used to be forbidden)?  This would be a
major courtesy to customers who want to alternate between INCLUDE
and EXEC of the same member.  (Ah!  I RTFM.  Optional now.  I
suppose someone will complain about the change.)
