WSA does much more useful things (IMO) than allow you to work in 
client server mode.  I use it mostly for file transfer, but have played 
with its ability to edit PC files using the ISPF editor.  Dave Salt might 
step in to list other capabilities of the connection.

PCOMM running on the workstation has nothing to do with it.  You 
could, for example, run your emulator (which doesn't have to be 
PCOMM, BTW) on one computer and WSA on another, then use WSA 
to access the files on that other computer.  Or you could use a real 
3270 and access the files on your workstation using WSA.

That is purely a function of PCOMM.  TSO has nothing to do with it, 
though it may have provided the URL.

It sounds like you are asking to have an emulator that also does 
other things.
