Re: CL Editor

Could you do the development on a second box?  perhaps even with an account
on netshare400.com?

Subject: CL Editor
 
I just leased an iSeries model 825 machine. It is a pure server but I have
run into a real snag. There are a number of things we need to do that
require CL. The configuration we have does not include a CL editor and the
only answer IBM has is for us to pay $60K+ and purchase their entire set of
development tools. (We are using the new box for Java (Websphere Enterprise
Edition) and SQL stuff.) The other workaround is to write the CL with a text
editor and upload it. (UGLY!) 
 
Have I missed something here? This severely limits our ability to interact
with the platform via its own OS command language. Doesn't seem to bode well
for attracting new customers to the iSeries as a 3^++ kicking server box. 
 
Can any of you suggest alternatives?
