From what he showed, it appears that in TSO/E OPER, the SLIP subcommand simply 
prompts for additional operands.

At that point, if he were writing in CLIST rather than REXX he could examine 
the prompt, and respond with something generated by the CLIST. However, writing 
in REXX I don't think he can respond. (As I remember, it is possible to 
stack/queue additional responses, which the system would then read when the 
REXX exec ends. But I don't think REXX provides a way to issue them while the 
exec continues to run. But those are old memories, at this point.)

I think (but cannot test) that his choices are to use CLIST, or to avoid using 
OPER within his REXX exec and use the more modern (but more complex) CONSOLE 
function instead.
