I think it goes without saying that we would very much like to see Rexx compatibility for EE and a more XEDIT-like working - although it is not at all bad at the moment, just a bit different. Because we are all very busy, it would be good if there would be an easy way to be involved in testing, e.g. by having a way to up/downgrade your EE installation, for example a github repo where we can easily download versions.
I would like to tell you what my personal priorities would be. As I am a late VM user (I had the course in 1987 on (probably) VM/SP R5 and had already my first opportunity to use XEDIT in 2019) (because in 1987 I only ever used VM to IPL MVS in it and then PR/SM came along) - all my Rexx editor macros start with ADDRESS ISREDIT.
Also, as opposed to most people I work with, I use the 3270 emulator keyboard as was intended, with enter mapped to linefeed and ctrl-right to send. So I am using XLIST and I wish it behaved a bit more like FILELIST (we could probably do that in Rexx now), I have X synonymed to EE and I find it almost workable. But I would very, very much have it behave a bit more like modern XEDIT.
best regards,
Ren¨¦ Jansen.

No feedback ... are editors much less significant in the (emulated) mainframe community now since most people are doing it the Zowe way ?
