                 EDIT DESCRIPTIONS FOR IBMCOM-10-ET-V4                          
  
  
                             EDIT 025    FOR IBMSPL
  
[SYMPTOM]
  
Files coming in to IBMSPL with a node number on the /DEST:
switch are not properly entered into the print queue.
  
[DIAGNOSIS]
  
The node number is sent to QUASAR as a sixbit string
instead of an integer number.
  
[CURE]
  
Patch IBMPAT to convert the node number from a string to an
integer number before putting it into the message to send to
QUASAR.

                             EDIT 365    FOR IBMSPL
  
[SYMPTOM]
  
When the LSTR switch is specified without the PNAME switch, the file is not
printed as expected.  It is held on disk in D60:.
  
[DIAGNOSIS]
  
If the PNAME option is not specified no checking was done to
see if there was also an LSTR switch.  The LSTR data remained
in the message when it was sent to QUASAR.  The result was a
bad message sent to QUASAR which QUASAR ignored.
  
[CURE]
  
Patch IBMSPL to check for LSTR data even if no PNAME switch
was present, and delete the entry.  LSTR data is not allowed

[DIAGNOSIS]
  
Inflexible coding

[CURE]
  
Remove indirection in JRST "routine-name" instructions
