I have an edit macro that I've used in one form or another for many years, it's my version of the point and shoot edit. Place the cursor on a dataset name in a jcl member for instance, hit the PFK set to ';CA' and you are taken to edit of that dataset. It discerns the dataset name by doing a
ISREDIT "(lne,col) = CURSOR" and parsing out the dataset name you are pointing at. I'm not sure when I first noticed it, but it appears to not operate correctly in SDSF (z/OS 2.2 currently) edit of JCL or output from the SJ or SE line command. The row and column returned are of the first non-blank character of the next line, someone pressed enter before invoking the macro, which usually with a JCL listing, just happens to be a '/' so you end up with a 'z/OS UNIX Directory List' of the root. I don't find any mention of any restrictions on edit macros in the SDSF FM. Anybody else tried this? is it pmr time?
