There is a program called c3270.  It's a curses-based 3270 emulator.
I don't have a zLinux system to connect to, just MVS, so I can't test
it but it seems possible that curses applications such as vi or nano
would work.  Just a theory.  Sources for c3270 are available:

There are a variety of tools here you may find useful, so you may want
to just grab the full suite.  It's quite small, <4MB iirc.
