While TSPF is a very good point-in-time clone of ISPF, it also supports things
like cut-and-paste, so it's more like running ISPF from an InfoWindow terminal
that, e.g., a 3180. I find line commandsd to be good servants but poor masters;
use them for the intended purposes and they are very usefu
It's not relevant where vi is running; what's relevant is what's on the other
end of the pipe. If it's a 3270, real or simulated, then it's block mode, with
all of its pluses and minuses. If it's, e.g., Telnet with a VT100 profile, then
vi can respond to keystrokes in (almost) real time.

By definition it's not just a good indicator, it's a perfect indicator, that
the editor lacks the feature(s) I wanted for my own idiosyncratic use. I don't
usually fault the editor for that; I can almost always think up features that
no one else would want.

As others have perhaps made clear, "SMP/E" and "easiest" do not belong in the
same sentence, for the most part.

100% agree with Kirk. IntelliJ IDEA is head and shoulders the best Java IDE.

It's been way too long but if I remember correctly, SMF Type 32 records are not

The code works now under TSO using TPUT.

Once it gets started, after the first Panel, it's fine.

It seems that there is a very good reason for leaving it as unloaded

And so it shall remain!!! (Well for the time being, anyway).
I will look into the other (non SMP) ways. It works now. So that's fine.
