1. Shouldn't happen if you hit enter right away. They're just lines for you to 
insert text, if wanted.
2. The file has to have variable length records to negate padding.

Cool idea but

1. It inserts a blank line between records.

2. It pads my records with blanks. I want RECFM=V records that end where they 
end.

You don't need an edit macro for that one.  Just edit the dataset, enter the 
KEYS command and set the PF key of your choice to ":TS" (without the quotes).  
The sets the pfkey to the "text split" line command.  Now you can position the 
cursor on the desired spilt character and fire away.
