Hello Tony,

Have you looked at NoteBook+?   I use it a lot for the z/VSE, and z/VM
stuff.  And now z/OS TSO stuff too.

Subject: Re: Anyone use The Hessling Editor (THE), an Xedit/Kedit
look-alike, for off-line VM code development or personal use?

I always run mine in xedit compatibility mode because I am normally
editing mainframe source files. I know there are other capibilities, but
I seldom need to edit 'special files' so I just use gedit for those. (I
wish they had not dropped kedit with this new version of KDE.)
