Edits saved list using Update processor.

Syntax

el {{file.reference} itemlist} {(options)}

If no file.reference is indicated, the list is retrieved from 'pointer-file'.

If no itemlist* is indicated, the default name, '%user.name', is used.

Options

z Suppresses 'top' and 'eoi' messages.

Example

el invoices.past.due

el dict customers cust.list
