Anyway, I'm a staunch advocate of the principle of minimal munging -- Leave the data as you found them. By default, don't remove trailing blanks -- if that's what the programmer wanted he could have used RECFM=VB. Don't add blanks, not even to empty lines (shame on ISPF EDIT!) There should be no need for _EDC_ZERO_RECLEN; if there's an empty record, keep it.
