I wish I may. I wish I might. I wish upon a star tonight that the setpt command would display a dialog box that had settings for the X, Y, and Z values where the user could set the desired value on one dialog box, rather than pick which ones should change, click OK, then, enter the values in the command bo.

I’m sure this can be scripted by someone with a sufficient knowledge of ETO (which I don’t unfortunately).
I personally use aliases for this:
sx = ! _-SetPt _Pause _XSet=_Yes _YSet=_No _ZSet=_No _Alignment=_World _Copy=_No
sy = ! _-SetPt _Pause _YSet=_Yes _XSet=_No _ZSet=_No _Alignment=_World _Copy=_No
sz = ! _-SetPt _Pause _ZSet=_Yes _YSet=_No _XSet=_No _Alignment=_World _Copy=_No
sxy = ! _-SetPt _Pause _XSet=_Yes _YSet=_Yes _ZSet=_No _Alignment=_World _Copy=_No
etc.
Preselect the objects, type the alias and enter, type in either a number or click on a point - done.
For the sxy, you can actually enter an x,y value at the command line. You can also create different aliases with options for world or CPlane and copy or not, I don’t use either very often, so I didn’t.
Also note if you are creating aliases, always have at least one of the “Yes” axes as the first option in the command string. The order in the string doesn’t actually matter.
i agree, the process could be easier, i keep thinking the same again and again every time i open up that command…
