IBM fixed it by A{AR. I conjecture that the defective code had cleared a buffer with XC then populated it sparsely. And that the output was tested on a 3211-like printer that tolerated the flaw. Such things reinforce my objection to Postel's Robustness Principle, which assisted in the escape of the defect to the field. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
