 The EC utility determines the name of the program being edited (based on member
 name) and looks for a dataset called
 youruserid.COMPILE.LISTING.programmembername and attempts to take you into an
 ISPF/PDF "edit" of that dataset.

 To invoke BC, simply type EC on the command line of a program you are editing
 and press .

 Obviously, you will need to set up your compile JCL to point the SYSPRINT of
 the compile step to a sequential file of the above format.
