Continuation lines and double-byte data

If the assembler is called with the DBCS option, then:

• When an SI occurs in the end column of a continued line, and an SO occurs in the continue column of the next line, the SI and SO are considered redundant and are removed from the statement before the statement is analyzed.
• An extended continuation indicator provides you with a flexible end column on a line-by-line basis so that any alignment of double-byte data in a source statement can be supported.
