With all due respect, you are thinking like a systems programmer.
Think of
the great unwashed masses of other ISPF users who just want to
*use* ISPF.
Don,
Approximately 10 years ago a place where I was working had VM & MVS.
I won't go into the details but lets just say that in one day VM went
"poof" so they had to convert quite a few people from VM to ISPF/MVS.
I volunteered to create a course from scratch for ISPF. I gave 5
classes to the "unwashed masses" as you put it. I had them up and
running in almost no time, it was a hands on class and everyone
(except one) raved about ISPF. Mind you I am *NOT* a wiz bang ISPF
person, just a sysprog who used it daily.
Now I know there are better editors but it works darn well (for me).
