Put them at the left of the following line.  That may be interesting
or not.

And substitution will expand/shrink internal spaces attempting
to preserve column alignment.  ISPF tradition.  Possibly undesirable
if your application demands delimiting by a single space.

And two consecutive ampersands suppress substitution, but are
not converted to a single ampersand.  Intentional behavior for
compatibility with Assembler source code, wherein double
ampersands abound.

And expanding a line beyond record length (which may not be
what you expect) results in an execution I/O error.

And it's impossible to supply in PARMDD a PARM ending with
a space.

Like, what's the most efficient way to clear a register?
