Scratch Area

The implementation of the DPS-2200 Scratch Area in AMT-COBOL behaves in exactly the same way as described in the DPS-2200 documentation, with two important exceptions.

1. The allowed length of the Scratch Area in AMT-COBOL is unlimited and NOT predefined. This means that the length of the Scratch Area used in the D$PUTSCR function call is the length of the Scratch Area of that moment.
2. Only the functions D$PUTSCR and D$GETSCR are implemented.
