How about this:
00256A E801 8011 C133 00011 0263B 7340 MVCIN NDX$CEI+1,=C'ab'+L'=C'ab'-1
00263A 8182 7437 =C'ab'
000010 20098+NDX$CEI DS H

Can you code an address expression with a literal? Is MVCIN TARGET,='Foo'+2
(or 2+='Foo', or some equivalent) valid? If so, you could embed your logic in
an executable SETEYE macro that would take SETEYE TARGET,'EYECATCH' and
generate MVCIN TARGET,='HCTACEYE'+7
You could certainly do it generating the constant in-line, but that is a cache
no-no. Of course, if it only executes once per run, who cares?

Subject: Re: Reversed string macro
The purpose, as most know, is to generate the source for an MVCIN
instruction, which was recently discussed (maybe on IBM-MAIN?).
Turns out, I found a bug in it. It drops characters when && or '' are in
the string. So replace " &A SETA &L" with "&A SETA K'&ISTR ".
>From the corrected version:
1954 TAMU #REVSTR 'Texas
A&&M University'
000012A7 A8A389A29985A589 1955+ DC
C'ytisrevinU M&&A saxeT'
000012AF 95E440D450C140A2
000012B7 81A785E3
000012BA 00000014 1956+TAMU EQU *-1,20
DCLEN is correct for the EQU length. N.B. In case it's not clear, the EQU
defines the address of the end of the string, with a length attribute. It
might be handy for say,
MVCIN @PRTHDR,TAMU
...
@PRTHDR DS CL(L'TAMU)
