That command is a dreadful security exposure, and requires REXX. No way I

It looks  like you  need an exit  facility. You shouldn't  have to  use a
kludge like .DO for this. I'll have to think about it.

But realistically, are you going to  maintain list template files for all
your lists with '.wi 73' added everywhere?
