can easily be done. I think the confusion comes from not specifying
where you get the initial description of the screen from. In the simplest
case you don't have any prior screen You describe the screen in XML
and that description drives a browser, a 5250 terminal, a PDA, what have
you...
The tool to do this is called a text editor. EDTF would work.
