Thank you for this and for the explanation. I must admit that this was the first attempt to write s390 assembly. I had to go through most of the "Principles of Operation" before I could get something meaningful going ;) > -- Regards, Vincenzo P.S. Now I can finally say that once in my life I wrote s390 assembler ;)
