No possibility to save inline.
But you can, after modifications, type in first line on the numbering zone C99999 or CC on first and CC on last lines then in command line CREATE, give a new name with same attributes ( that will be asked for ) save, and get out the original file by CANCEL.
Then rename, delete etc...

If this the case of the Physical Sequenced organization (member) of some Partitioned dataset, write REPLACE NEWMEMBERNAME and change 000001 (the very first line of the member) Line number with C99999. This will update the changes.

You can REPLACE the member itself, since you are in VIEW mode. Just use the command REPLACE member_name, mark the first line with C99999, and you'll see the message 'MEMBER member_name REPLACED'. After the message shows, you can CANCEL and return to the list of members.

Apology not to be that much clear in my previous note.

Thanks O for covering this as well.

Yes,

You can save the contents of the dataset by replacing it by using following command.

REPL .ZF .ZL 'NAME OF THE MEMBER'

It will be replaced once you press Enter.
