Before I retired we had a module from YKT that would execute the EXEC being edited FROM STORAGE, w/o having to Save it. Don't know if it ever was put in the VM Download Library but it was *very* handy for tweaking or experimenting with code! I wrote a RUN macro to invoke it and pass parms, making my life easier.

Even that is possible: my PROFILE XEDIT searches for special comments
somewhere in front of the EXEC.  I'd code in the exec to test:
/*XEDIT:SET: PF10 MACRO EXECCALL .EXEC mainexec parameters */

And, if you'd need to run youyr "mainexec" with other parameters than
"parameters":
- enter the new parameters in XEDIT's cmdarea
- press P10

EXECCALL can help there too:
 SET PF10 EXECCALL .EXEC mainexec
But I rarely have an exec that does not require arguments, so I would
need XEDIT to remember that too...
