Paul,

I quit using any char that has a moving codepoint(*1) in CA constants.
Way too many points where it can fail.

I would love to see a way to have an ASCII-7 constant in my code. Maybe
ASCII_OPEN_SQ DC  CB'['    <---- this should resolve to a 5B

Until then I use hex for the ones that might move (like 5B and 5D)

When this option shows up, we are able to use constructs like

      MVI FELD,CB' '    move in the ripple char

just like we can with regular EBCDIC


(*1) 0 thru 9, a thru z (upper and lower) and 19 specials (which I am
too lazy now to enclose now)
