Error description

  • To reproduce:
    
    Add the following text to an ascii object in traditional mode:
    
    #!/usr/bin/ksh
    ##################################################
    #  Script %name:     %
    #  %full_filespec:
    #  Description:      KEEP THIS TEXT
    #  %derived_by:      %
    #  %date_modified:   %
    ##################################################
    
    Note that there is no % character after %full_filespec.
    
    Check-in & check-out results in the following contents:
    
    #!/usr/bin/ksh
    
    ##################################################
    #  Script %name:     filename.txt %
    
    #  %full_filespec:   filename.txt~1:ascii:1 %derived_by:
    userid %
    #  %date_modified:   %
    
    ##################################################
    
    Keyword expansion has deleted everything between %full_filespec
    and the next % character 2 lines below at %derived_by.
    
    This doesn't happen in web mode.
