And some utilities accept partial stems, such as:
EXECIO
...
STEM var-name
...
When var-name does not end with a period, the variable names are appended
with numbers
This is useful in the API to such as ISPF Edit which prohibits '.' in
variable names.
What about:
'EXECIO 3 DISKR ddname (STEM X.Y.Z' /* Lacks final '.' */
Does this define X.Y.Z0, X.Y.Z1, X.Y.Z2, and X.Y.Z3? Is Y substituted?
