Why? And if you want "WYSIWYG", you can get it as easily under Linux as

(remember DW/370?
Yes. I also remember DCF, BookMaster and BookManager BUILD. I'd take them

And I wish that the various Unix shells could do what TSO can do. And I
wish that ISPF and XEDIT could each do what the other does.
In many cases, you can't do a high-low-equal comparison between platforms
