I've always liked ISPF edit much more than XEDIT. You said PDF edit - I'm
not sure if you mean something different than ISPF edit.
My theory is that what you learn to use first is usually what you like best.
I first learned SPF edit back around 1979. I was the VM systems programmer
for 5 or 6 years, but I never liked XEDIT as well. I remember several of
the programmers and analysts who used XEDIT long before we installed MVS
liked XEDIT much better than ISPF.

Don't I need XEDIT first? Is there an XEDIT for z/OS? XEDIT beats the
stuffing out of PDF edit as far as I'm concerned. Although I would be
mollified if PDF edit would enhance the FIND, RFIND, CHANGE, and RCHANGE
to include POSIX regular expressions.
