Peter, not sure if you are replying to me or Binyamin but in any event I
have absolutely no complaints with the documentation. It is eminently
thorough and clear. I just had not yet read that part. The question I had
been researching at this point was "will I need an R13 save area?" not "how
does POST LINKAGE=xxxxx behave overall?"

Subject: Does POST require a save area?

Some variants of POST LINKAGE=BRANCH do save most registers; some do not.
The authorized assembler reference is quite clear on tis subject.

You're right that in the most extreme case, only register 9 is preserved.
