Display repeating attributes

Structure specifications may contain table attributes followed by an ellipsis (…). The ellipsis indicates that the last attribute may be repeated a variable number of times within a single record. If the ellipsis (…) is on a separate line, it indicates that the last (previous) structure line may be repeated a variable number of times.

In most cases, delimited format is more suitable for repeatable attributes.

In fixed format only complete lines can be repeated. A single field cannot be repeated on the same line in fixed format because its field length is fixed.

The ellipsis construct can be used for both input and output.
