Re: Command Defaults... Are they stored anywhere?

[x y <xy6581@xxxxxxxxx>]

Aren't they part of the command object?  CHGCMDDFT changes the defaults for
everybody, not just the current user.  CHGCMDDFT changes the object's
change/time; that suggests the (changed) defaults are buried in the object.

There's code (RTVCMDDFN?) floating around that does a semi-good version of
extracting the command source from a command object; QCDRCMDD is the API.
But I can't think of a way of getting the original defaults--other than
looking at the source code, of course.
