By inline I means that it is executed in the script rather than being put on the stack.
There is a documented restriction that TSOLIB only works from the READY prompt. Due to the way that IBM implemented EXEC, a CLIST called from the READY prompt can also issue a TSOLIB. From REXX you would have to PUSH or QUEUE the command. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)
