As I was finishing up last night it hit me that I hadn't started working on the ISPF Help Panels yet. So now I have all of the help panels finished for all of the parts that work. I'll add the remaining help panels as the code is written for those functions.
I also restructured the User Guide this afternoon to improve its appearance. So I'll spend the rest of this week tidying up everything that's been done up to now, and next week I hope to start coding for the various commands.

Lots More Progress
Lots more progress made last night and today. I've added documentation and comments into each COBOL program and REXX exec for things like program purpose, contact information for the author, who calls the program, who does the program call, etc.
I added the 'LOCATE' primary command to the member list panel for locating specific members in the display.
I moved the in-line REXX code from the panels to the REXX library. There are four panels, so each REXX program was duplicated four times. Each time the code changed, I had to change it in four places. Now all of the REXX code is in the REXX library and only has to be changed once.
I'm very close to wrapping up this phase of development and moving on to adding the code for the Global and Line commands.
