So you're using LR for your print file overflow???  <G>

While there are some real nice things about the free-format C-specs, let me
point out that they are *not* required for getting rid of indicators.  I
have a lot of RPG IV programs written with just fixed-format C-specs where
the only indicator usage is setting on LR to end the program.
