notispf port for z/OS Open Tools

This repository contains the zopen port definition for notispf, a terminal text editor inspired by the ISPF editor from z/OS mainframes.

About notispf

notispf brings the ISPF prefix command workflow to Unix System Services (USS) terminal sessions. If you know ISPF, you already know notispf — prefix commands like D, DD, C, M, >>, and the command line work the same way.

Prerequisites

  • z/OS Unix System Services
  • zopen package manager
  • Python 3.12 (python_312 zopen package)

Installation

zopen install notispf

Usage

notispf myfile.txt

Notes on EBCDIC

notispf edits files as-is in USS. For native z/OS datasets, use the DSFS feature to mount them into the USS filesystem before editing. This is the same behavior as other USS text editors (nano, vim, etc.).
