Rob is the SDSF architect so you may want to heed his advice!

It's my understanding that Doug's ISFPCU41 panel and REXX panel exit was for highlighting syslog. Most of that stuff is in native SDSF now so you don't need customization.

Can I strongly advise that you do not modify the ISFPCU41 panel.

I hope you don't mind me ignoring that advice. ;)

But don't worry, the changed panel is in my own panel library, which is allocated in front of the IBM supplied ones, with the original one.

There could be changes to the SDSF ISPF interface that would make any
modifications you make to this panel very difficult (or impossible) to
implement into the next release of SDSF.

In which case we might have to start from the original new panel again. I already mentioned that Doug's version is old, at least a decade, and that the addition of a lot more attribute characters on the current panel makes his copy look very weird on z/OS 2.4.

If there is functionality that you require in SDSF, please consider raising
an RFE.

And how long would I have to hold my breath?

Anyway, it's not very different from using the modified ISREDDE2 panel and accompanying USRHILIT REXX exec from CBT967 to add highlighting for a heap of other languages to the ISPF editor. For what it's worth, that modified ISREDDE2 could be changed to use panel REXX making it completely self-contained!
