At /questions/2000777/allocation-of-memory-in-variable-length-tables NealB mentioned LE routines to allocate/deallocate memory in a non-CICS COBOL program.

I'd very much like to know how this is done: how the LE routine is called. (I'm familiar with the LINKAGE SECTION and with SET ADDRESS.)

Since I have no access to an IBM mainframe at the moment - meaning no access to online documentation - some code snippets could enlighten me.
