Is this a JCL typo?


Bill Lewis
 

I recently purchased an old punch card cabinet from the estate sale of a local hobby
machinist club member.

There was one single punch card in the bottom of the cabinet.? And I'm wondering, is this a typo?

I think this is probably a continuation ?card of a previous comment card.

Treated as end-of-job, if not a continuation card.

It is a DOS/VSE card not an MVS.

I take it back DOS has /& at the end and plain // for MVS.? It is not MVS; it is some other unknown system.

I want to say it is a Power/360 control card.? I think it was used to indicate EOF.


Robert Schreiber
 

Yes, you have a typo.?

You have //[space]*, not //*.??

It took the "*" and tried to match it against JOB EXEC DD, etc.
