my Binder RCF?:
I suspect that the the effect of having "(P)" on things other than the
first is
-- the overall module is given the "P" option (so that it will be
page-aligned when loaded -- this is a bit in the directory entry)
-- rounding is done so that the named CSECT is on a page boundary
-- possibly earlier CSECTs other than the first would not be on a page
boundary
I think the first CSECT in the Load Module (and the Load Module
itself) is automatically Page Aligned. What putting (P) on a section
on the ORDER statement does is add padding after the prior section so
the (P)'ed section is Page Aligned.
