What a stupid necessity that REXX programmers have to code:

PARSE (UPPER) ARG var1 var2 ...

What a stupid necessity to have to code extra volumes in JCL/IDCAMS (or in your

There are a lot of warts (still) in z/OS.
Some are trivial, some are complex, and some are not truly worth the effort to

its quirks.
