I agree - but are you suggesting another method????

Ah, but it is better to use a defined and documented programming
interface than it is to screen scrape.

Not so bad.. here is something I use, I think it works everytime..
 PARSE UPPER SOURCE . . . . . RXNAME .                                
 'PIPE STORAGE 740 8 | XLATE 1-* UPPER | VAR ABC'                     
 IF ABC = STRIP(RXNAME) THEN SAY ' ENTERED ON COMMAND LINE'           
 
NOTE: You want to get the command line from x'740' not 2A0 as I may have
indicated.

        Ugh! I would hate to do it that way from a very simple EXEC!

        In the CMS NUCLEUS at offset 2A0 you can find the name of the
last command (typed at the console) issued, and at 2B0 is the name of
the last EXEC procedure... 

        If that helps any.
