Hey Mark,
what do you mean by:
??BREXX still has a problem with parsing its command line, so that will be a challenge, in and of itself.¡°
The error in the parse statement or any other issue?

CMS HELP was based on XEDIT since VM/SP 1.
FILELIST arrived with VM/SP 2, EXEC 2 was used ( still EXEC 2 on LCM+L's VM/SP 5 but (compiled) REXX on z/VM 6.4).
REXX arrived with VM/SP 3, XEDIT received EXTRACT, Prefix Macro Support, Selective Line Editing (see ).
I think as a minimum we should approach VM/SP 3 XEDIT compatibility.

I think SP3 compatibility would be a good start. BREXX still has a problem with parsing its command line, so that will be a challenge, in and of itself. Would support of EXEC2 be present, until BREXX is fixed?
I don't know where XEDIT lives in memory, when invoked. Does putting it, or part of it in a DisContiguous Saved Segment (DCSS) hurt or help? Was it in the CMS DCSS since SP 1?
