Actually it was Ben who said:

Boy, am I the wrong guy to ask that question.

When I did COBOL programming I used TSO TEST to debug (after checking the PMAP 
for complicated instructions to make sure that they were properly done - I once 
found a bug in a compiler).

When doing system programmer testing I use VM/PER rather than XDC.

I said what I wrote below only being sarcastic when I said why use z/XDC or 
Xpediter.  I find them great learning tools for one, as well as time savers 
worth their weight in gold.

Again, I don't think I'm good enough to write a Rexx debugger like that, but a 
boy can wonder how it might be done. (-:

Happy New Year!

Man! Don't get me started, Ben!
