RE: CEETSTA

[Phil Groschwitz <sublime78ska@xxxxxxxxx>]

David, Jon, Barbara:

That's it!

I used a v4r3 manual (because I was coding on a
machine running v4r3) and it says this:


D CEETSTA     PR         EXTPROC('CEETSTA')
D   Present    10I 0
D   ArgNum     10I 0     CONST
...                                                   
D HaveParm  S  10I 0

whereas the v4r4 manual says this:


D CEETSTA     PR         EXTPROC('CEETSTA')
D   Present    10I 0
D   ArgNum     10I 0     CONST
D   Feedback   12A       OPTIONS(*OMIT)
...
D HaveParm  S  10I 0


Sun of a gun!
