Jack,
I would love to agree with you, but sorry, I just can't. As much as many of us embrace RDi, and even VS Code, I have worked with enough programmers over the past few years who are just not going to abandon green screen and SEU. They write in Free, their entire screen is lit up bright green and you could get a tan from the thing, but that's their comfort zone and they won't leave it. Typically, these are also the most uninformed, least of knowledge, of PC operating systems (whichever one you choose) and struggle with tasks in those environments. Email, Teams/Chat, Word, Excel, and a browser is about all they know, or even want to know.
Just my opinion/observations.
Steve M.

You might actually be able to do so :)
I don’t think that would work.
Well, I wouldn't really want it to :)
Between Merlin, VSCode, and Db2 for i Services, the green screen will soon just be for when one has to fix something in the console after a bad IPL when TCP/IP doesn't come up.
