Many 3480/3490/etc drives ("square tapes" to you IBMers ;)) have media changers on them. We have several of those at LSSM. I'm pretty sure they can change media under host control. Unless you're

Actually I type (or set a PF key to) "CMS EXEC <filename> <arguments>" to run an editor macro. The macro must have an 'address' statement inside, I personally am tempted to write '/* REXX */ address

Re: #VMCE #rexx EE goes XEDIT - compiling a wish list #VMCE #rexx
There are minor BREXX changes to support using the IBM FBLOCK interface to allow EXECs with filetype 'EE' . It's not so easy to beta test BREXX, because of the VMCE integration. It might be simpler to

Hi Drew, I have done minor fixes over the last 2 tears, but no one is actively maintaining it. The major (and only reported) bug with parse is present on all platform versions of BREXX. Do you have a

XEDIT macro's could not be written in classic EXEC (reason why an XEDIT macro doesn't need to start with &TRACE). One obviously could place XEDIT subcommand in the stack using classic EXEC and then
