It will work, that is how I usually do it.
And so will this:
"line_after .zl = 'this is a new line'"
"line_after .zl = ' and so is this '"
Though I prefer to assigh the value to a variable and then use that, mostly
because it is easier to handle quotes and complex strings that way.

Gentlemen,
Thank you for your help. Both on list, and off list.
I appreciate it.
I have read the examples and I'm going to implement it.

I would expect an RFE for compound ISPF variable names to also request long

For some chores similar to this it's a crying shame that ISPF shuns

If it is a short template then you can insert the lines from the macro. Replace
the COPY command with
/* Insert template */
s='Template line 1'
"line_after .zl = (s)"
s='Template line 2'
"line_after .zl = (s)"
and so on and so forth

I think this is the shortest sample I can come up with. It generates first or
next membername for the day, then edits that member using itself as edit macro.
The edit macro part copies the template and saves the member. Remove the
'CANCEL' command to stay in edit.
The command can be executed fro
I think there's a misunderstanding about "selecting" the member. If I read
Radek correctly, the program is to pick out a name that does ~not~ refer to an
already existing member, and use that for the output. That's not hard; the
member name will be "" where is a constant, is
