I hadn't considered it, nor mentioned it.  But, now, I don't
see why not.  HLASM already produces suitable information in
SYSPRINT.  I should be able to put my cursor on a message line
in HLASM's SYSPRINT (point) and press a PF key (shoot).  The
macro activated by that key would parse the message ID from the
line, connect to LOOKAT e.g.:

    
http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/os390/lookat.cmd?msgid=asma057e&release=ZOS%2FV1R5

... fetch the associated page, and display it.

SMOP.

Now if only Lookat would provide fragment/anchor identifiers ('#')
for reason codes.
