In one of the IBM sample exits for DB2 (DSNA10.SDSNSAMP(DSN8FPRC)) we find:
             SAVE  (14,12),,'''&SYSPARM &SYSDATE &SYSTIME'''
...which won't assemble, generating:
000015                              142+         DC    CL8'3 08.36''
** ASMA063E No ending apostrophe - 3
** ASMA435I Record 62 in SYS1.MACLIB(SAVE) on volume: VTMVSC
000015                              143+         DC    CL1'''
** ASMA063E No ending apostrophe - '
** ASMA435I Record 58 in SYS1.MACLIB(SAVE) on volume: VTMVSC

So I changed it to just
             SAVE  (14,12)
and of course that works, but I can't find any documentation for SAVE that 
includes a second or third operand!

I've looked at the macro, and it's pretty opaque and poorly commented (though I 
do like one item under "CHANGE ACTIVITY": $01 = OW54354  HBB7706 020419 PDXB: 
FIX "J" - wonder what that means?).

Anyway, can anyone point to real doc for SAVE? Surely after almost 50 years it 
exists...
