RE: Controlled ENDJOB of Interactive Pgm

["Bale, Dan" <DBale@xxxxxxxx>]

The thing about using SHTDN is that the opcode must be executed _while_ the
*CNTRLD portion of the ENDJOB is still timing down to zero.  Ain't gonna
happen when the user has disappeared (nobody there to press a function key,
the display is sitting on an EXFMT or READ opcode).  Yeah, I know, pretty
useless, eh?

I am unfamiliar with how ENDJOB affects the *PSSR, though.  Perhaps someone
else on the list can educate us on this.
