Miguel,
Sir Rob The Plumber is one of z/VM's "Master Plumbers", and a generous VM
Community contributor.
With some explanatory comments (stage names and arguments UPPERCASE to
distinguish them from variable text, default arguments included) , Rob's sample
again:
‘PIPE (ENDCHAR ?)’ ,
‘| < input file fm’ , /* Primary input to LOOKUP are the
“DETAIL” records */
‘| L: LOOKUP NOPAD 29.4 1.4 DETAIL’ , /* Look in column 1 for 4 chars
for record with any of the strings passed from the LITERAL stage */
, /* Keep only the DETAIL records with
matching MASTER records (from below) in cols 1 for 4 */
‘| CONSOLE’ , /* Display the results on the console,
you can change this to write to a file, etc. */
‘? LITERAL 0690 1090 nnnn’ , /* Add more 4-char codes in place of
the ‘nnnn’ */
‘| SPLIT AT BLANK’ , /* Split the literal at into separate
records
‘ | L:’ /* Shunt that “MASTER” records to the
label “L:” as the secondary input to LOOKUP */
