You can still argue that both subprocess with external editor

simpler code wise using just the VMS provided API's and
not some wrapper found on the internet.

But I like multiple options.

 I just created a JNI wrapper around the callable
editor wrappers.
 So now the Groovy snippets:
 res = Edit.edt("A\nBB\nCCC")
print(res)
 and:
 res = Edit.tpu("A\nBB\nCCC")
print(res)
 work.

And using a normal shareable image and ctypes, then
it also works in Python:
import edit
res = edit.edt('A\nBB\nCCC')
print(res)
and:
import edit
res = edit.tpu('A\nBB\nCCC')
print(res)
