This won't help Raymond any, but it reminded me of something.
I used to write a lot of panel apps using a VM program product called Display
Management System for CMS. It had interfaces for EXEC/EXEC2, COBOL, PL/I, RPG,
and BAL, but I used REXX with no problems. Admittedly it was ISPF-Lite but it
did everything we needed for some pretty sophisticated applications. It has a
slick (well, for 1980) interactive panel design tool that would let you build
anything a 327x could display. DMS was really lightweight and fast, both in
time-to-production and execution speed.
Anyone know what happened to it?

other?

I thank you in advance for your time and assistance.
I believe they will work, but recognize that ISPF on z/VM, unlike on z/OS,
costs extra. If you have IFLs, a Special Bid is required.
