Re: Help make XEDIT and ISPF EDIT keystroke compatible (WAS: XEDIT Macro and Command Line Input)
Speaking of fingers being trained: I've always used an IBM
101 keyboard ever since IBM started using pc's and my
fingers *still* can't get used to where the arrow keys are
on it! I think they remember a 3279-3x.
My first laptop, in 2009, gave me conniption fits until I
modified a 101 keyboard to add footpads (for air
circulation) and a PS/2 to USB adapter for it so it can
bridge the laptop keyboard. A small fan to the right of my
recliner adds some extra circulation and a usb driven
portable fan goes with me when I'm traveling. So I have the
same keyboard for both the laptop and desktop. With THE as
my editor, in Xedit mode, it's just about like being back on VM!

Thanks. You are right. I was trying too hard. Checking queued() was exactly
what I needed.
And yes, I am trying to get my VM and MVS environments to behave somewhat
alike. Like you said fingers get trained. And, after 30+ years my fingers are
very well trained! The problem is that over the years I have spent time in both
camps so I have issues either way I go. My co-workers laugh because
my MVS world has always understood QQ FILE. (And I always have
'autosave' turned off.)
Right now I'm starting to do more in the VM world and I find that by using
PF7/PF8 all I succeed in doing losing my place in my document.
Going the other way, I keep wanting to use X in ISPF 3.4 ... and my dataset
just disappears!
So, SCROLL is destined to be assigned to all the pf keys I expect to scroll
the screen and make it behave more like ISPF.
And I would be happy to collaborate on making this happen.
(And I know you suggested that I contact you off-list, but I'm betting we are
not the only ones that would like these capabilities. And, we are probably
're-inventing the wheel' in many cases. Perhaps, we will get some others
offering tools that they have already created.)

Bob,
You're actually trying too hard: your macro should just look at QUEUED() and
see if there's something stacked.
This is a crude example, because you probably want to do more than just a
LOCATE * for a M (like EXTRACT /SCREEN and divide by 2, then make it
'COMMAND * -'n
or some such), but:
/**/
if queued() 0 then pull op
else op = ''
if abbrev('MAX', op, 1) then 'COMMAND LOCATE *'
else 'COMMAND FORWARD' op
BTW, are you trying to do an SPF-ish environment in XEDIT? If so, please
contact me off-list -- I'd be interested in helping. Not that I think SPF is
better*, but I understand that the fingers get trained (now that I'm doing
z/OS, I find myself doing FIND instead of / in XEDIT and KEDIT sometimes!),
and it's been something that folks have talked about for a long time.

Subject: XEDIT Macro and Command Line Input
I'm struggling trying to write an XEDIT macro and hoping someone can help=
me=20
over a tiny stumbling block.
I want a pfkey set to a macro. ie. SET PF6 BEFORE MACRO SCROLL
And I want to be able to accept an *optional* command line parameter.
If there is always a command line parameter I seem to be able to use
READ CMDLINE to get it. However, this does not seem to work=20
when there is no command line parameter at all. I just get hung
at the READ CMDLINE until I hit enter. Also, when there is a
parameter I not only what to read it, but I want to consume it so that
it is no longer on the command line after my macro.
Is there a way to do this?
Re: help with DMSCGR DMSCSR esoterica
Uppercase or not: I guess that these CSL routines also work with EXEC2, and there One is another variable than ONE. Substitution or not: One often sees execs containing code like this: info.street='xxx' info.name='' and the coder of the exec didn't define 'street', nor 'name' as variables. So INFO.STREET and INFO.NAME are the variables here. When accessing them from CSL (or PIPE), one needs direct access, no substitution. In PIPE speak this is VAR INFO.STREET DIRECT This technique makes it possible to code for example ToEat='STREET NAME' do while toEat'' parse var toEat t toEat say left(t,10) '=' info.t end But, this is not always what exec programmers want. So the reason for substitution or not. Notes: - I consider the above (coding info.name='xxx' and supposing 'name' is a constant) as bad practice. One can get the same simple code by using info.0name='xxx' as 0name can never be a variable. - With CMS Pipelines, VAR xxx.yyy DIRECT has better performance then SYMBOLIC. One must know what one wants to achieve. Given that t='NAME' - 'PIPE VAR INFO.T SYMBOLIC ...' - 'PIPE VAR INFO.'t 'DIRECT ...' both produce exactly the same result, but the second example is considerably faster. 2011/2/19 Steve Marak sama...@gizmoworks.com I have one of those is there ever any situation when ... would not be a good default questions, and I need the help of VM-savvy minds capable of perverse and twisted logic. I can't imagine a better place to find them than this list. (Yes, that was intended as a compliment.) As you all know, DMSCGR and DMSCSR are CSL routines which retrieve and set, respectively, the values of REXX variables. The default behavior is that the variable name passed is searched for directly in REXX's list of variables, exactly as passed. Optionally, the caller can ask that the name be both translated to upper case and that REXX perform variable name substitution on it before looking for it. (Since REXX doesn't care about case in variable names and some quick experiments confirm that passing mixed- or lower-case names without this option isn't productive [except of non-zero return codes], one could reasonably ask why the name is not always translated to upper-case. I think it's a very valid question, but more or less irrelevant to my problem.) In situations where everyone involved knows which behavior is desired, the choice between substitution or not isn't an issue.

Re: Help with HCPVSS429E (spool error).
1. Drain the pack via command 2. List it as a draining device in SYSTEM CONFIG. 3. Grab SPOOLCHN from the IBM Download site. It is dependent on another package that is also there. 4. Run it to determine what files have blocks located on the pack. 5. SPXTAPE DUMP the indicated files with the PURGE option. 6. SPXTAPE LOAD the files from the previous step. If all files on the disk are ordinary spool files, the pack will be drained after the dump. If there are DCSS or NSS files, it will not be drained until after folks are convinced to re-ipl or log off. Once it is drained, feel free to molest it any way you desire.

Re: help with an error code
Use HELP, the waitcode plus a W, hence: HELP HCP912W which tells you: HCP912W System recovery failure; volid volid not mounted Explanation: A volume necessary for checkpointing the system is not mounted. The volid refers to the volume ID of the volume that is not mounted. When CP issues this message, the volid should be the volume ID specified on either the SYSCKP or SYSWRM parameters of the SYSRES macro in HCPSYS, or the CHECKPOINT or WARMSTART operands of the SYSTEM_RESIDENCE statement in the SYSTEM CONFIG file. etc...

If it did abend, you need to solve that problem, too. Of course, don't let that stop you from fixing whatever is causing the 912. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott

Well, then Houston, I think we've got a problem because when I download UM31742, use SERVICE and PUT2PROD, it doesn't update correctly. When I review the various MSG and LOG files, it appears that it installs correctly. So . . . either the code is wrong or SERVICE and/or PUT2PROD has a problem. I think I'll try doing it the old fashioned way described in the 5.2 Service Guide to see what happens. Thanks for the reply Leland. Steve G.
