*Drifting the topic, any product that lets you make changes via command really could use an option to generate a new startup options file that reflected all of the cumulative changes.It would take some doing to do it in way that preserved comments. And avoided misleading comments.* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If I'm not sure of a command,I put it into a file and issue it via ISFSLASH.
One store of these commands can be a PDS. Just add them in some logical sequence. When you can't remember,"what was that command". Just refer to the command file. I find the JES2 commands incredibly cryptic and from time to time, we're asked to $T a jobclass. That's when my file comes in handy. I issue the commands via a REXX program which reads the PDS. Easy to comment out a command when parsing it to decide when to issue it or not.
