Would adding a few lines like

Pipe | cms rcx setr list,
     | > setr list a,
     | hole,
     | append cms xedit setr list a,
     | append cms erase setr list a

Work? 

Another possibility might be to simply enter the commands

   From the CMS command line:   xedit temp file a (width 250
   From the xedit command line:         recfm v
                                                trunc *
                                                pipe cms rcx setr list |
xedit

If that works, then you could incorporate the commands entered in XEDIT
into an XEDIT macro or into PROFILE XEDIT
