That would be me.

doesn't even count the number of input records correctly).
There is a good chance the logic is illogical. I'm a COBOL novice, and DL/I
pre-novice. I'm surprised I got it working at all on MVT way back then. I
was lead to believe that the OSAM appendage we have is incompatible with
MVS, so it's exciting to hear that someone has managed to get it working on
MVS.
