Along with the GUI however, IBM provided several ISPF services that

services allow you to transfer files between your workstation and the
mainframe at FTP-like speeds. You can also set it up to transparently
edit mainframe files using a workstation editor, or vice versa.
Pretty cool stuff...but one of ISPF's best-kept secrets.

I never figured out how to do that - although my motivation was low -
I liked the ISPF editor. And my windows editor does FTP to the
mainframe anyway - but why would I want to use it to edit source code?
