I had begun to think that my experience with PDSEs was somehow atypical, too lucky, because I had not encountered the grievous problems that featured in others' war stories.
I therefore spent a long afternoon trying to reproduce and clear some of these problems. My experience was much like Mark's. The problems reported here did---some of them anyway---occur; but they were readily cleared away. I conclude that this is a problem of a different sort. Some people will continue to use PDSs, 3270 emulators, and the like until they are pried, irrelevantly, from their cold dead hands. They are and should be free to do this, but it needs to be understood that no technical argument will avail against their rooted preferences.
