Where I read:
    • FLOWASM is written using SPMs but does not depend on itself for obvious 
reasons.
That's not obvious.  Many language processors, even HLASM, are written in
and depend on the languages they support, after bootstrapping.

    • For z/OS, supports both fixed and variable length source (SYSIN) input.
    ...
    • Library(SYSLIB) input still restricted to LRECL=80.
    • We use only RECFM=FB LRECL=80 source libraries.
Ouch!  I suppose that's imposed by the SYS1.MACLIB catenand.

I don't see a description of the continuation rules for a SYSIN containing
a mixture of flowed and unflowed records.

Thanks again,
gil
