When was the last time you actually wrote code on a green screen?
Well, I think that most programmers still use TN3270 and ISPF. I would
count that as a "green screen". I really wish that I could get my hands
on WD4z to see if I think it could replace TSO and ISPF entirely for
COBOL program development, both batch and CICS.
Yes, you can. And should you feel a need,
WD4z also includes TN3270 functionality.

For an overview of functionality vis a vis an ISPF
replacement, you could scan the outline of our
WD4z course at
