I'm just curious.  Why do you need to ATTACH the program

Doesn't task termination automatically free some resources that
the programmer would need to free specifically after a LINK?
Also if the attached program abends it doesn't sink the entire ship.

I suspect that can be covered with an ESTAE in either case.  But it's
easier with ATTACH.

It's certainly easier when you don't *own* the attached program, which is usually when I've seen this technique used.
