I was going to site my own ASIDLIST program on my web site / CBT file 434,
but I just looked and I forgot I updated it in 2016 to support ASVT above the
line. :)   So that is indeed a long time that this option has been available
and all software should support it by now.   The REXX version needed no
changes of course (ASIDLRX).  

Off subject:  I would really like to (also) extend my appreciation to the list
owner - Darren Evans-Young - for cracking down on off subject posts and
all the nostalgia posts etc.  I have actually had time this week to follow the
list from the web archives and keep up with posts with my super busy
schedule.
Best Regards,

Mark
