ISPF 3.4 line command E dont seem to invoke IMACRO

Hi there,

In the profile of a library I specified IMACRO #STD. When I edit
a member thru option 2 or the self-written command ED
(in ISPFCMDS) the REXX-Macro #STD is invoked. When I use the
E line command in 3.4 (DSLIST), this does not seem to happen.
When I supply my ED command as line command, it works.
Does the E line command simply work like that, or are the any
settings that require change?

Thanks for your help

Try the EDSET command from within an EDIT session.

Hi Ofer71,

To be honest, I did not hold much hope when I tried it,
but to my pleasant surprise it worked. I wonder for what
reason they store and retrieve the same setting in 2 places,
something you would expect from Microsoft.
But never mind, you solved my problem
and I thank you very much.

Cheers. Kurt
