In an appendix it documents the parameter list for IDENTIFY that the LOADER uses. But these days I can't imagine an application that didn't require at least above the line. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)

How much are you willing to bet? But you probably want to do it above the bar, and there I can't help you. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)

You know the entry point has to be within an existing load module? You *cannot* do (what would be a very useful thing) a GETMAIN, build or copy some code into it, and then IDENTIFY it with an entrypoint. MVS internally has some trick whereby it does that but you and I cannot.
