Oops.  Zoned numbers have the hex form x'f5f1' etc., not x'5f5f'.

Anyway, with zoned parameters, it's easy to call from the command
line as long as they aren't negative.  Just pass character literals
since characters '0' - '9' have the same hex value x'Fn' as zoned
digits.

  CALL PGM(JIMCONEX/CHGAPOPEN) PARM('51' '990110' '51' '000120')
