There's no "best way", there's only less bad way... 3270 is not a full screen terminal, so anything expecting a full screen will get stuck. This includes emacs, vi/vim, nano, pine...
You can use sed, grep and awk. Save a backup copy, use sed/awk combo to parse the lines and change whatever is needed. Just beware editing files when you need to add/delete the '#' char, it's the default escape char for CP.
