My question was badly written. i did not want to talk about the asm
END statement, but about the END record/card in the object deck.
well, one can use HEWLDIA and friends.

In fact, I was modifying a FOSS compiler which generated an object
file directly, no
assembler involved. I chose to use assembler terminology descriptively.

Compulsively, I wanted to save the storage of a branch around the

It seemed easier to generate an offset and an RLD than to invent a

I am not sure whether I understand .

So long ago that I hardly remember. But given the documentation
of the object format (input to Linkage Editor) I was able to cause
the compiler to generate an object END record that Assembler
would have generated (ESD and displacement?) if a name had
appeared on the END statement.
CSECT ESD id displaced by length of eyecatcher.
