I used to make a few minor mods for the ISPF-lovers I had lured to
XEDIT, such as providing both R/RR and "/"" for line duplication.
Yes, this can and should really be done in a PROFILE XEDIT, but
this way it was guaranteed for everyone without having to make
sure they had the appropriate PROFILE statements.  Phil Smith is
the person I think of for *real* XEDIT modification.

I would test the changes in a private copy of CMS, and then reinstall
on the "soon to be production version" of CMS.  Regards, Jeff


PS: Such a pleasure to see non-spam mail on this list!
