#1: SHIFT entire file contents Author: chuck,

Hi,
If I use an edit macro to shift the instructions give example like this
ISREDIT SHIFT ( .ZCSR 10 where .ZCSR is the line on which the cursor is.

How would I shift all the lines?
Manually I type (( n and (( on the first and last line of the file.

I tried without specifying a cursor location but that didn't do anything.
I tried
ISREDIT SHIFT ( .ZF .ZL 10 but that errored out.

chuck,

You have to write your own DO WHILE logic to shift for each line and it is painstakingly slow. You are better running it in batch using a utility

Cool- this is classic example of tunnel vision on my part! It was far simpler to do what I wanted with SORT and OUTREC. LOL!

Thanks for the pointer
