Subject:      Shell to communicate with Mainframe
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed

I am using EXTRA! from Attachmate.com to communicate with an os/390
mainframe.

I write JCL and SAS mainly. Sometimes I use the other utilities like
file aid.

I do not like the way extra displays the moniotr, and I was wondering if
there are any alternatives to this shell (if it is called a shell)

thanks
