Does anyone know of a macro that would allow end-users to easily
tailor their screen without having to learn all the various
SET commands?  What I envision is the macro would show a template
screen, and the user could use PF keys to toggle the screen colors
and location of the scale, curline, tabline, etc...

The macro would either create a new PROFILE XEDIT, or perhaps create
a separate macro that could be called from the user's PROFILE XEDIT
as a subroutine.  Thanks.

P.S.  On another subject, I wrote a macro that converts DMS/CMS
      panels to equivalent xedit SET RESERVED statements.  Free
      for the asking!  Please direct requests to me, not the list.
      That is, use REPLY FROM if you use Rice Mail.  The macro is
      608 lines long.
