Subject: JCL EXEC name field?
In the JCL Ref.:
Chapter 16. EXEC statement
...
Name field
...
• The stepname may be preceded by up to 8 alphanumeric or national
characters
and then separated by a period. If the stepname is coded in this way,
the characters up to and including the period are ignored.
WTF?
A way of coding a very short comment? Is "00000000." OK?
