   Yeah, I too was unsure how the conversation logic jumped from string   
   representations for x86 assembler to the best coding practices for IBM   
   mainframes and/or assembly software maintenance and portability.  So, I   
   think the issue of relevance comes to mind, at least, to my mind.   
      
   Do IBM mainframes even use x86 processors?  Are IBMs on-topic here?
