I think that no one has done one so you are treading on new
territory.
Of course there may be one out there. If memory serves me no one
heard of FSE until some member of GUIDE did a presentation. Maybe
there is an "xedit" look alike out there hiding in the weeds and just
waiting to pop out.
The Hessling Editor. But I don't know; rather I doubt; that it's been
ported to z/OS.
Sorry is it MVS native (not OE)... and if is Fullscreen and if its
not ported maybe you should ask them to?
But I'm less motivated toward any particular editor than to have
a pluggable editor interface for DDLIST, DSLIST, SDSF SE, ...
The SDSF is a little bit harder .. as you would have to take a look
at the SDSF source (yea SOURCE) and see how it invokes the editor
maybe that would give you an idea.
As to ddlist and dslist, I am not familiar with those. Perhaps they
are in house???
If so you would have to look at the source and then at the SDSF
source to see how to invoke PDF/edit.
SDSF has to keep distributing source as most of JES2 is source
(exceptions there are) so you can learn from there how to invoke an
editor.
Let me end this discussion as there is a difference (but its been
ages since I was interested) between (I think) ISPF and PDF. I used
to care 30 years ago but since IBM bundled everything together its a
jumble. I *THINK* IBM used to sell them separately (I never heard of
anyone not ordering both) But trying to separate them was a mess and
it was just easier to bundle them together and buy them.
editor, but AFAIK there isn't one out there(anyone know of one?)
