There IS a set of tools - free from IBM - that includes emacs running on a VNC connection from the i. It has a product code 5799-PTL. The thing is free - did I say that?

Just tossing this out to y'all.

Just to really muddy the waters, you can try the following:
STRQSH
vi
ex: 0602-108 unknown is not a recognized terminal type.
[Press return to continue]
ex: 0602-127 Visual mode requires more cursor capability than the
terminal provides.
:
I've tried vi on one or two occasions, which normally had me running for
the scotch. IDK the right parameters and try to forget it as soon as
possible.

EDTF

Is a very basic text editor for stream files in the IFS. Though it also
works on DB files.

Ok so I think my goals are as follow:


- Go through a STRPDM tutorial for SQL just to get familar with the
mechanics.
- Do the next DB schema design project with SEU and RUNSQLSTM
- Next project where I have to write to some tables in PHP, I look for
the source members with the SQL (I know they exist)
- Write my next PHP file in EDTF.
- Go back to my normal way of doing things when I'm comfortable with
all
that.

In the future I could go through some RPG tutorials so I can advise on the
nuances on calling PHP from RPG.

Thanks Charles and all.
