Sir Kris The Guide runs with Prefix on Right by default (of course). Only when frequent deletes/moves I set it left.
As I mentioned here already: when I saw XEDIT for the very first time, the demonstrating colleague entered > and < in XEDIT's command line. And indeed I shamelessly copied his idea, so SET SYN < SET PREFIX ON LEFT SET SYN > SET PREFIX ON RIGHT SET SYN ! SET PREFIX OFF make since ages part of my SETSYN XEDIT macro, called by my various profile macros for all XEDIT based tools. -- Kris Buelens, IBM Belgium, VM customer support
