Well, I found an online version of the IBM 3270 data stream programmer's 
reference, and redid that whole section of code a bit differently - having 
forgotten what the heck that macro was doing (a rare time I can be grateful for 
short-term memory not making it into long-term memory :-)) - and am compiling 
it now.  The new version also indicates the address format in the protocol tree 
item (14-bit binary or 12-bit coded), and also specially handles the format 
that manual claims is reserved.  (Oh, and it notes that we don't handle 16-bit 
addressing.)

I'll check that in, and revert the license.
