Thanks for your concurrence.  But SMP/E nowadays is extremely
permissive about what characters may appear in a CSECT()
parameter of a ++MOD MCS.  Some of these may reasonably
be expected to be nondisplayable on typical terminals (but
lower case alphabetics should not be deemed nondisplayable;
at worst they are Katakana in some code pages).  But what
should be done with seriously nondisplayable characters?  Is
it the application's responsibility or ISPF's to filter or translate
them?  Which component is aware of terminal capabilities.

SR is a good suggestion, but I got bigger fish to fry.  Stay
tuned.

Thanks,
gil
