Side Note: It would be handy to issue DSPxxx commands with OUTPUT(*PRINT) or OUTPUT(*FILE) from the COMMANDS LOG View. (We could then view the spooled output or file contents without leaving RDP/RDi.) Unfortunately executing DSPxxx commands is only possible if RDP/RDi has a "slave" 5250 session through STRRSESVR.

Starting with version 8.5, if you add the comment /* *showsplf */ to the command, the last spool file generated by the command is loaded in the editor.
This works about everywhere you can enter a command: Command History, Commands subsystem, user actions...
It even works for compile commands as long as you do not compile in a separate job. I've changed the CRTCMD compile command which does not generate an event file to load the spool instead.

This functionality is not officially supported, see: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21608550

Have a nice day.
