Mr. Gilmore I would consider a "friend" until he tells me otherwise. For each of his erudite tit there is my inane tat. It takes two to tango. Piazzolla is my favorite.
Cannatello tells how to write an SVC, and his book is relatively new, and mentions nothing about PC routines. So my question isn't really "in vento et rapida scribere oportet aqua."

(*If it hadn't been said several times already.) It's always somehow wonderful to hear that there are still people now trying to learn this stuff. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: IBM Mainframe Assembler List [mailto:ASSEMBLER-LIST@LISTSERV.UGA.EDU] Im Auftrag von Lindy Mayfield Gesendet: Donnerstag, 7.
