MPEX and STREAMX
MPEX/3000 allows you to apply many commands, including Qedit commands, to file sets such as GL@.SOURCE. MPEX’s usefiles and “indirect” file-sets, a file containing a list of file names, can also be Qedit files. This is also a very useful tool for managing disc space. MPEX can list all of the files in the system with more than, say, 2000 sectors of space, showing which devices they are on, etc. MPEX also has the ability to search a set of files for a string. The files may be Qedit files. The Set Extprog command of Qedit will integrate MPEX commands into Qedit.
VESOFT has an MPEX %Listf format that is especially useful for Qedit files. It displays the logical record length, language, number of lines, and the first three lines of text files, all without changing the access date and time of the files. This new %LISTF,ID option is available in version 25 of MPEX.

STREAMX allows you to keep job streams on the system without passwords. STREAMX will supply the necessary passwords, and lets you write smart job streams with its job stream programming language. The job streams can be Qedit files. Warning: Qedit permits comments on command lines using the characters { and }. If you use this feature, you may need to alter your STREAMX character set.
