that routine, that might help.  (I've already seen the offending code, so I'm not sure I should write any 
replacement.)

Well, I found an online version of the IBM 3270 data stream programmer's reference, and redid that whole section of 
code a bit differently - having forgotten what the heck that macro was doing (a rare time I can be grateful for 
short-term memory not making it into long-term memory :-)) - and am compiling it now.  The new version also indicates 
the address format in the protocol tree item (14-bit binary or 12-bit coded), and also specially handles the format 
that manual claims is reserved.  (Oh, and it notes that we don't handle 16-bit addressing.)

I'll check that in, and revert the license.
