I prefer to have sequence number.

Subject: Assembly:  ICTL  1,79,16


External Message: Use Caution


Anyone using ICTL in assembly language?

ICTL  1,79,16  moves the continuation column to 80, allowing more "free form" 
coding, leaving more room for comments, and not having to worry about where 
that pesky column 72 is, which is effectively moved to column 80 where it's 
easier to see and code for when necessary.

When a macro is invoked, the assembler mixes "traditional" code with a 
"non-standard" ICTL directive.

Yeah, 73-80 was for sequence numbers, but I haven't dropped a deck of cards for 
some time now.
