Create External Line Commands

You can externally define your own line commands for any given display. This ability lets you drill down or initiate an action to satisfy your own requests. The parmlib member LINECMDS contains example definitions. Using these example definitions, you can define your own set of external line commands specific to your needs.

Follow these steps:

1. Access user definitions from the following location:

   user.sysview.parmlib(LINECMDS)
   

   The LINECMDS parmlib member displays.

2. Code your own external line commands in this member using the example definitions provided in this member as a template and save your changes.

   Your line commands are defined.
