Oooh! Neat! Thanks for this.

But beware; sometimes DROPping things can increase the storage in
use, as in:
142$ cat morestor
/* Rexx */ signal on novalue; /*
Doc: can DROP increase storage usage!?
*/
X. = 'Everything'
call REXXSTOR
do I = 1 to 10000
J = random( 99999 )
drop X.J; end
call REXXSTOR
And sometimes IBM expects things not to be reused. Long ago,
on CMS, and pre-HLASM, I reported to IBM that the assembler
leaked 132 bytes of storage on each invocation. No PTF. IBM's
recommendation: larger REGION; same recommendation I got
when I once reported 0C4 in some IBM code.
