A similar option, is that you can have a 5250 session open, and run the 
STRRSESRV command within it.  This associates the 5250 session with WDSC. 
You can then define user actions to run as "Interactive" and when you run 
them it will run the option within that 5250 session.

This is also one way that you can debug interactive 5250 programs.

There is also a compare option available within the LPEX editor.  What I 
do not like about it is that it doesn't let you just compare two members 
you already have open, and the UI for picking the member you want to 
compare with is not very good.  Also, I do not think you can "edit" while 
in compare mode, which is unfortunate.

Finally, Eclipse itself has a compare tool that looks nice visually.  This 
is what you get when you select two members and choose Compare with -> 
Each Other.  It is a nice way to see the differences, but again, it is not 
an editor.
