Couldn't resist the subject update. It's having removed a pebble from in my shoe.
Interesting thread though.

I remember using full screen editors named EDGAR and FUSE prior to XEDIT. Don't remember which came first or their official IBM status.

I can only talk about the MVS side of things.
AFAIK the VM version came later and XEDIT was one of the other
fullscreen editors (I think there were 2, but the second name is out
of reach for a minute)

EDGAR?

Could be sounds familiar.



My limited VM knowledge says there was a war between the two and
finally the other one won but then ISPF came along and eventually
eliminated them both.

Gil: It must be somewhat popular as IBM still sells it (last I heard)

Nope.  Hard to find any VM programmer who takes ISPF seriously.
