Each '// ' line that is continued needs a comma at the end.  The space
before the comma is part of the "text" of the command line
 
Specifically for an ADD command, you can use the JOB syntax
w/o continuing syntax.  Using the JOB style allows more
operand space so that perhaps continuation syntax is not
required.  After the userid@node you require at least two
"words" which are usually a firstname and lastname.  More
than two words are OK, I've fogotten what the total length
of userid@node and name length is, but it is certainly
"fixed."  This abstracted and edited from the LISTOWNR MEMO:
 
    ADD listname DD=X
    //X DD *
    <user1> <full_name>
    <user2> <full_name>
