Return codes from I/O and command routines

EDIF and BRIF invoke routines supplied on the service invocation to perform I/O and primary command processing. Specific return codes are expected of these routines and are grouped into four categories:
0
Normal completion.
4
ISPF should process the request.
8
End of file.
12, 16, and 20
Error conditions; the specified functions did not complete because of errors.

Return codes for these functions are described in greater detail in the EDIF and BRIF sections in Description of the ISPF services.
