VMS Help  —  MACRO  /ALPHA  Directives  .ASCIZ  Description
    .ASCIZ performs the same function as .ASCII, except that .ASCIZ
    appends a null byte as the final character of the string. When a
    list or text string is created with an .ASCIZ directive, you need
    only perform a search for the null character in the last byte to
    determine the end of the string.
