Using variables in the command interface

The STATE command provides the current value for each QMF-provided variable. It can be used only in the command interface. When you issue this command, you can place the QMF variables in the ISPF variable pool through the VPUT command. Table 4 shows the subset of the available QMF variables that QMF places into the ISPF variable pool.
