Workspace File Manager for z/OS

Save the File Manager Compare parameter selections in the user's IDZ Workspace

The File Manager Compare feature provides the user with many parameter options to define the exact comparison that he wishes to perform between the two data-sets.
The File Manager ISPF interface saves the user's current selection in the user's TSO profile, so that the next time that the user wishes to perform a Compare these are displayed as the initial selections on the Compare panels.
The File Manager IDZ interface does not act in the same way. Each time that the user performs a Compare using the IDZ plugin, default selections appear for all the parameter options.
In many cases the user has a preferred set of parameter selections but these are not saved in the user's workspace from one Compare to the next. Currently the user is forced to manually reselect the preferred parameter options every time he wishes to perform a Compare.
The File Manager Compare interface would be much more friendly and efficient if Compare parameter selections were saved in the user's workspace after each use.
