I know this doens't answer your question but, I thought it
might be easier for you to start out with the command:
SHOWJOB [log in to unmask]

Then you don't have to search through your output for the
particular account.
It would be easy to set the job as a variable. Then you could
just do something like. :ljact @.sys

COMMAND LJACT;PARM ACT="@.@"
SHOWJOB JOB="!ACT"


Not an answer. just a sugesstion,
