Dave, Yes, workstation based editing. Opening the "Host connection emulator", is essentially opening a 3270 emulator, same as if I connected with TN3270, or Attachmate (or whatever). All the bells and whistles of RD/z are lost to the emulator. The purpose is to leverage all the RD/z niceties, while retaining the feel of the ISPF Editor.

Or are you saying you want ISPF-like editor for workstation based editing? _________________________________________________________________ Dave Jousma Manager Mainframe Engineering, Assistant Vice President [email protected] 1830 East Paris, Grand Rapids, MI 49546 MD RSCB2H p 616.653.8429 f 616.653.2717 -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Brenton, Ren Sent: Monday, August 29, 2016 1:13 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: RD/z Yes, Gil is correct. An ISPF Editor plugin for RD/z would be awesome. I miss my labels, I miss stacking commands (with an ";" or a "3/4", as Gil uses). Edit MACROS would be awesome. Dialog Services, TB services, LMM services, not to mention TSO services. (Did I mention CSR scroll?) I thought about seeing if I could get my copy of Tritus SPF to work, somehow under RD/z) but alas, after finding a 3.5 floppy drive, I found my floppy copy was corrupted. (Bummer). (I loved Tritus). Has anyone thought about trying to lash up WorkStation Connect to RD/z? That way the full complement of ISPF/TSO services would be supported?

I perceived the OP as wanting to use interactive (not batch) ISPF as a plug-in editor for RD/z. Does "don't use separator characters" mean that no character is sacrificed as a separator; than one can freely code such as: address ISREDIT 'find a;b' and not having the ";" (or any other character) being taken as a separator? -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN The information contained in this message is proprietary and/or confidential.
