Add invoked omvs command to 3.17 command results display

Under ISPF 3.17 one can, if enabled, issue OMVS commands and have the results appear in ISPF Browse or View. It would be very helpful to add to the display the full command that was issued. This is especially helpful if the results are printed/cop...

Enhance ISPF Edit Panel REXX to See *ALL* of the Data

Enhance ISPF Panel REXX to allow access beyond the zscreeni (current screen) to see the entire edit/view data. This will allow changing hilighting when text spans screens, and will also allow other actions based on the entire edit data rather than...

ISPF Edit access to Edit Info/Msg/Note records

Using ISPF Edit one can access all standard records but the Info/Msg/Note records are currently hidden to the Edit macro. Having access would provide additional capabilities to exploit these messages.

Provide way to regenerate ISRF05* messages after RESET SPECIAL

When editing or viewing a PDSE V2 member when generations are active, various ISRF05* messages may be inserted at the beginning of the member. Issuing RESET SPECIAL (for example, deleting COMPARE output) will delete these lines. It would be nice i...

ISPF Edit should be site configurable to prevent the Editing of a non-zero PDSE member generation.

Editing a non-zero (non-base) PDSE member generation is asking for trouble for many reasons, the least of which is that non-zero generations are not able to be accessed via JCL or dynamic allocation. After much discussion on PDSEGEN the decision a...

ISPF Allocation (3.2) key label entry should provide an option to validate

The Key Label should be able to be validated prior to allocation. This can be via a selection list or just validating the key label. A selection list would be ideal given the length of the labels and thus the chance of a finger check (user 0FC) :D

ISPF Edit Compare should support comparing to a different generation

When in ISPF Edit or View the Compare command should be able to compare to an absolute, or relative, generation. compare -2 x compare abc -1 x compare 49 x
