        We have an EXEC that sounds like it does the same thing.
GRAB EXEC  uses  GETFMADR,  which I believe is part if IPF and thus
gets fixed (supposedly) by IBM when it breaks.

                GRAB  TROTH  192
                TROTH's 192 linked as your 220 and accessed as your G-disk.

        The exercise is certainly more challenging in Assembler,
but for something like this,  we thought REXX would be easier to maintain.
