The sequence numbers are removed in a separate step.

ie CHANGE ALL P'=' ' ' 73 80

If you have ./ in cc1-2 do a CHANGE ALL on any that are not IEBUPDTE
directives. Perhaps change ./ to .#.

I use a combination of a program that updates member by member using an
EDIT macro, that would be the final step to reverse the .# chars back to ./.
