Yes I am UK so on GMT+1 but also got nasty cold so brain not working about
1%....
.... My input is treated as unbuffered and the program is very small. Does
anyone have a larger example?
These are the CMS commands that are issued...

FILEDEF SYSUT1 DISK COB360 SYSUT1 A ( LRECL 1 RECFM FB BLOCK 1
FILEDEF SYSUT2 DISK COB360 SYSUT2 A ( LRECL 1 RECFM FB BLOCK 1
FILEDEF SYSUT3 DISK COB360 SYSUT3 A ( LRECL 1 RECFM FB BLOCK 1
FILEDEF SYSUT4 DISK COB360 SYSUT4 A ( LRECL 1 RECFM FB BLOCK 1
FILEDEF SYSIN DISK TEST COBOL A ( LRECL 80 RECFM FB BLOCK 80
FILEDEF SYSPRINT DISK TEST LISTING A ( LRECL 121 RECFM FB BLOCK 121
FILEDEF SYSPUNCH DISK TEST SYSPUNCH A ( LRECL 80 RECFM FB BLOCK 80
FILEDEF SYSLIN DISK TEST TEXT A
CP LINK COBOL 191 333 RR READ
ACC 333 B/A
B (333) R/O
RUNPARM IKFCBL00 LIST , PMAP , DMAP , XREF , SUPMAP , SIZE = 1024000
REL B ( DET
DASD 333 DETACHED
ERASE COB360 SYSUT1 A
ERASE COB360 SYSUT2 A
ERASE COB360 SYSUT3 A
ERASE COB360 SYSUT4 A
Ready; T=0.05/0.19 10:47:13

Which all looks very odd...
.... and the listing says at the top

1  CB545 V2 LVL78 01MAY72                 IBM OS AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD
COBOL                       DATE SEP 13,1919

So I assume it is the same compiler. And at the end I get:-

*STATISTICS*     SOURCE RECORDS =    15     DATA DIVISION STATEMENTS =     1
PROCEDURE DIVISION STATEMENTS =     2
 *OPTIONS IN EFFECT*     SIZE = 1024000  BUF =  238288  LINECNT = 57
SPACE1, FLAGW,   SEQ,   SOURCE
 *OPTIONS IN EFFECT*       DMAP,   PMAP, NOCLIST,   SUPMAP,   XREF,   LOAD,
NODECK, APOST, NOTRUNC,   LIB,   VERB
 *OPTIONS IN EFFECT*       ZWB

Oh and I changed the DD for SYSIN to be "BLOCK 800" and it still works....
.... I know some folks have run MVT. Has any one tried the compiler in an MVT
system?
