You can specify a macro to run at the beginning of your edit sessions by placing a variable called ZUSERMAC in either the shared or profile pool. ZUSERMAC must contain the name of the macro and cannot include any operands. ZUSERMAC must not be longer than 8 characters.

If ZUSERMAC exists in the profile or shared pool, the macro it specifies is run after the site-wide initial macro, and before the initial macro specified on the edit panel, on EDIT service command, or in the edit profile.

If you want to remove the user application-wide macro, you can issue the VERASE service to remove ZUSERMAC from the shared or profile pool.
