One way I did it was using FINDREP= with STARTPOS and ENDPOS to change space to
zero. You can make multiple passes on the output record with multiple
IFTHEN=(WHEN=INIT statements - BUILD first then FINDREP or other manipulation
after the build.

We currently use SYNCSORT and need to parse an input CSV file with a trailing
number that we need to right-justify in a fixed-length field with leading
zeroes instead of leading blanks.
So far I have not been able to find an example that shows how to write out that
trailing field as a right-jus
The PDS command (StarTool) is very good at mapping and manipulating load
modules. I have not tried it with an entry point created only by IDENTIFY, but
it's worth a shot.

And the CDE list does indeed contain the answer. The entrypoint is not
there, but that is my answer.

I had initially mentioned that more than 1 file could be generated by 1
producer. There could also be more than 1 producer on the LPAR.
I would assign 1 sub-task (written in assembler) to each zFS file.

Indeed.

FSVO is; that is where the information on the respo
That depends. The short answer is that if the parameter list is in dynamic
storage then it is reentrant.

You should see a CDE for the alias. You can use CSVINFO to retrieve a list.

In a SYSUDUMP I can see the names of loaded modules, but not (unless I am
missing something) any names added by IDENTIFY. Is there a service that will
return to me the names of all entry points added with IDENTIFY?

Does code written at a time before "high halves existed", or perhaps even
