CLs without ENDPGM

[bvining@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

>From the online help for ENDPGM (V4R2):

    The ENDPGM is not required at the end of a CL program.  If
    the last statement in a CL program source file is reached and no
    ENDPGM command is found, an ENDPGM command is assumed by the
    compiler.

And likewise for PGM:

    If a PGM command is used, it must be the first
    command in the program source file; if a PGM command is not used, a
    PGM command without parameters is assumed.
