Yea, sorry about that, cut/paste the wrong stuff.  While that was a prog member 
I had setup a long time ago, I used it to cut/paste each line as a console 
command, NOT as a SET PROG command.  My bad, and my apologies

Well now I am thoroughly confused. I am looking at Init & Tuning and those do 
not appear to be valid PROGxx statements. What am I missing? I see LNKLST ADD 
in I&T but not SETPROG LNKLST,ADD -- that's a console command, not a PROGxx 
statement, right?

Charles

That is exactly one of the uses!

Easy for you and me to redesign MVS retroactively but yes, your point is 
well-taken. It would seem that for the same effort as Set PROG= IBM could have 
produced a much more generally useful console command to cause MVS to read and 
"execute" a file of console commands, presumably possibly including 
SETPROG,APF,ADD and DELETE.

Or perhaps such a command exists (I am not much of a console operator)? If so, 
why then SET PROG= at all? Why not just use that facility?
