Hi Steve. Sebastian mentioned compiling "LSPF" https://github.com/daniel64/lspf on your UNIX system, written by the very talented Daniel Erdos. A great idea!
"Hybrid Editor XE", or just "XE", is also worth compiling. It supports Windows, Linux, AIX, OS/2 and DOS. The latest version v1.30C concentrates on Windows and Linux. Written by master programmer Mizumaki-machi. https://github.com/sakachin2/XE Buried in amongst the source tree is the file aixmkxeV122.tgz for Making an AIX version of XE at the 2010 v1.22 level. As you explore XE's directory structure, you should know that "wxe" stands for Windows XE, "gxe" stands for Gnome/GTK XE (think: Linux), and the "ulib" and "xe" subdirectories have common (multi-platform) source, some of which is explicitly for AIX (with "aix" in those names). After unloading the source, html file XE/docs/xehelp/indexe.htm will bring up some amazing web-browser-based documentation, including an "AIX Version" menu option. Files that end in the letter "j" have Japanese text. They have counterparts ending in "e" in English. Here is a link to the old website for Hybrid Editor XE: https://web.archive.org/web/20190303055258/http://www.geocities.jp/sakachin2/index.htm Note that as well as ISPF Editor functionality, there are additional bells and whistles built into XE; although that old web page also covers some quite separate programs from the same author that are not part of XE. Good luck!
