We consider subroutines fairly expensive in terms of system
resources,
Just going a bit off topic but.
we had a batch process that processed lots of data and I mean lots, but it
didn't have any transaction boundaries. Someone was asked to add them. So what
did they do? yes you got it. At the start of the routine they started a

NO : Retrofitting TRANSACTIONs into existing programs would be a
nightmare.
YES: Definitely use them when writing a new application from scratch and
even a new sub-system enhancement if it is pretty much self-contained

Here is a sample:
MYFUNC looks like:
001 FUNCTION MYFUNC(ARG)
002 RETURN (ARG=Y)

MYFUNC is globally cataloged
DICT FILE TEST looks like:
001 V
002 SUBR(MYFUNC,Y)
003
004
005 1R
006 S
when I LIST FILE TEST, I get a Segmentation fault(coredump) and it dumps me
into Unix.

Try using the SUBR() function, as I mentioned in another post.
Ouch. Granted my function opens a file and [currently, for debug] prints to
the screen, but attempting to call it with SUBR from an I-Descriptor
caused... '25945 Bus error' and left the session
globally catalogued as in CATALOG SUB.BP *MYFUNC ?
so you should be using : SUBR(*MYFUNC,Y)
we do this all the time in universe since at least v7

Wendy;
I tend not to use a FUNCTION unless I really need it for the syntax. It
helps me to remember that even when calling a function you can change
any of the passed variables - not just the return variable (just like a
subroutine). For some reason I didn't think a function could do that,

I've never seen this asterisk thing on the front of a cataloged program.
I've never had to do that in UniData. I can call a SUBROUTINE fine from a
Virtual attribute no problem - and not asterisk. Could it have something to
do with the fact that we run BASICTYPE 'p' and ECLTYPE 'p'?
I used to work for Matheson Gas Co. that used Epicor on HP900 with UD. They
are based in Parsippany, NJ. I haven't worked with them for many years so I
can't say for sure if they are still running the same systems.

I think it's a universe/unidata difference. I get the segmentation fault
running unidata in ecl type U as well.
Here's some interesting info and an ugly hack--in unidata.
Apparently, the keywords SUBROUTINE and FUNCTION are interchangable as
far as BASIC is concerned, so create a subroutine
Interesting. But you NEED that extra parameter? I tried DEFFUNing a
SUBROUTINE that has only 1 parameters and could not get it to work.
If your FUNCTION sets any of the parameters, you can CALL It from UniBasic
-- and you don't have to DEFFUN it.

That could have been simply overcome by locking the file instead of
