Now I'm confused!  That page gives one table for "Condition code
descriptions" and another for "Status info parameter identifiers".

The manual page I have describes the PRINT intrinsics condition codes.

The COBOL test prog -

       SPECIAL-NAMES.
           CONDITION-CODE IS CC.
....
            CALL intrinsic "PRINT" USING PTEXT PLENGTH CNTRL-CODE.
           IF CC NOT = 0
             DISPLAY "INTRINSIC 'PRINT' HAS FAILED".

returns values consistent with the "status info" value.

So in other words it seems that COBOL is giving me the "status info"
values and the C test program (using ccode()) is giving me the
"Condition code" values.

Help!

I supose I could just not care why it does this.  In which case you
might be able to help me.  Presumably this is consistent with other
intrinsics and PRINT isn't a special case?  As long as I know the rules
then I can live with it.
