Bummer.  I long found it irritating, inconsistent, and silly that whereas
entering Browse, Edit, or View as a line command before a PO data set
in a list causes display of a member list with the specified command as
the default, doing likewise on a UNIX directory issues an error message
rather than displaying a member list.

I surmise, since you mentioned the exception, that:
o you considered it
o you found it impractical.



Gil,

When I passed ANYTHING other than a member name to BROWSE, EDIT, VIEW, 
it came back with "Invalid member name".  I suppose I could create my 
own hacked up versions of BROWSE, EDIT, VIEW, that would allow other 
than a member name, but I'm limiting myself to things that I can do via 
panels, execs, etc., without subverting ISPF itself.  Unfotunately, 
we'll probably be waiting a long time (and probably forever) for IBM to 
enhance ISPF itself.  That's why I'm trying to deliver as much 
functionality as possible with clean usermods.


Regards,
Tom Conley

Alas, working for an ISV I had to avoid non-IBM facilities lest I inadvertently
mention them in instructions to customers.  And our helpful admins assisted
us here by declining to install extensions such as CBT.

I'm delighted with this one; it eliminates a PITA.

I've long considered it a bug that when I specify:
HLQ.**.CSI
and request no additional qualifiers, it nonetheless displays the DATA and INDEX
components.  Experts tell me this must be WAD.  I don't understand.

Thanks greatly,

FYI,

I am pleased to announce the V1.2 release of the CBT Usermods Collection

dwindling development resources for ISPF.  CUCI release V1.2 delivers 
the following enhancements, chief among them, EDIT highlighting for many 
languages (this is the $CHANGES member):
