|
|
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 _________________ Kolusu

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 |
