Vi has not only captures but other useful things such as command substitution. Yes, "You can write a macro to do each of those." But why, when they already exist in another editor. Rather, make my script an ISPF Edit line macro. Does vi expect a UNIX directory structure? That's the problem that DSFS was created to address. Hmmm... When on my desktop I "vi wombat", vi creates a temporary lock file in the same directory, ".wombat.swp". How might that play DSFS? I'd expect to find answers to such questions in the DSFS User's Guide, if I could only find the DSFS User's Guide. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
