Blesséd are you amongst ISPF's children, I'm sure. It is the orthodoxy. I've
just grown, in recent years, to prefer keeping stuff that works together close
together.

This, more or less, one of my ISPF EDIT bête noires. I'm not a fan of the JCL
in this PDS, source in that PDS, etc separation of members, preferring to keep
my PDSs function related so I can then rapidly hop from one member to another
when performing a task. The price I pay for this blasphemy is ISPF constantly
doing irritating things with the profile.

An IBM-MAIN reader complained that (my) mixed comments
changed (his) ISPF setting to CAPS OFF and he had
to issue a command to change it back to ON!
