4.2.3.3.7 The Session Manager Display Screen

 






   Figure 15 illustrates the windows on the Session Manager default display 
   screen. The following figure lists the attributes of each window (the 
   operands used to define it). The windows were defined in the order listed 
   at the top of the figure to take advantage of the MAX and WRAP operands on 
   the DEFINE.WINDOW command.

   Window    Description 




   MAIN     
The MAIN window is the large portion of the display screen above 
             the numbered line. This window displays the TSOOUT stream which 
             contains a copy of all the TSO/E commands you enter, all output 
             from those commands, and any messages you receive from other 
             TSO/E users, the operator, or background jobs.  If you enter 
             information in the MAIN window, Session Manager sends it to the 
             TSOIN stream to be executed as a TSO/E command. 




   LINE     
This window displays the numbered line located on line 2 in the 
             HEADER stream. If you try to type in the LINE window, the 
             keyboard locks. Press the RESET key to unlock the keyboard. 




   CURRENT  
Just below the numbered line is the CURRENT window. Initially, 
             this window displays the last two lines in the TSOOUT stream. If 
             you press PF6/18, the CURRENT window changes to display the last 
             two lines in the TSOIN stream (the last two commands you 
             entered). For a complete description of how PF6/18 changes the 
             CURRENT window between displaying the TSOOUT and TSOIN streams, 
             see "Changing Program Function (PF) Key Definitions" in 
             topic 4.2.3.5. 



             If you enter information from the CURRENT window, Session 
             Manager sends it to the TSOIN stream to be executed as a TSO/E 
             command. 




   TENTRY   
The TENTRY window displays an arrow located on line 1 in the 
             HEADER stream. If you try to type in this window, the keyboard 
             locks. Press the RESET key to unlock the keyboard. 




   ENTRY    
The ENTRY window begins after the TENTRY window and continues to 
             the vertical bar on the last line of the screen. This window 
             "wraps the screen" which means that it is defined as one line 
             that physically covers two or more lines on the screen. The 
             ENTRY window is where you normally enter TSO commands to go to 
             the TSOIN stream although you can enter them from the MAIN, 
             CURRENT, and PASSWD windows. This window displays a blank line 
             located on line 10 in the HEADER stream. 




   STITLE   
The STITLE window displays the word "SCROLL" located on line 6 
             in the HEADER stream. This window, in combination with the 
             SVALUE window, lets you know what the scroll value is for the 
             scroll PF keys. If you try to type in the STITLE window, your 
             keyboard locks. Press the RESET key to unlock the keyboard. 




   SVALUE   
This window displays the last line in the EXTRA3 stream which 
             contains the scroll amount value for the scroll PF keys. 
             Initially, this value is set at HALF, which means that if you 
             press one of the scroll PF keys, the MAIN window scrolls one 
             half-page. You can change the scroll amount value by typing a 
             new value in the MAIN, CURRENT, ENTRY, or PASSWD windows and 
             pressing PF2/14. If you try to type directly in the SVALUE 
             window, the keyboard locks. Press the RESET key to unlock the 
             keyboard. 



             For the valid scroll amounts, see "Program Function (PF) Keys" 
             in topic 4.2.2.2. For a complete description of how PF2/14 sets 
             the scroll amount value for the scroll PF keys, see "Changing 
             Program Function (PF) Key Definitions" in topic 4.2.3.5. 




   LTITLE   
The LTITLE window displays the word "MAIN" on line 9 of the 
             HEADER stream. This window, in combination with the LVALUE 
             window, lets you know if the MAIN window is locked or unlocked. 
             If you try to type in the LTITLE window, the keyboard locks. 
             Press the RESET key to unlock the keyboard. 




   LVALUE   
The LVALUE window displays either "UNLOCKED" (on line 7) or 
             "LOCKED" (on line 8) in the HEADER stream. These words refer to 
             the status of the MAIN window. When you issue a SCROLL or FIND 
             command, Session Manager automatically locks the MAIN window. 
             The PF keys that issue these commands also issue a command to 
             move the LVALUE window over the word "LOCKED". To unlock the 
             MAIN window, issue an UNLOCK command or press PF12/24, which 
             issues that command followed by a command that moves the window 
             over the word "UNLOCKED". For more information, see "Changing 
             Program Function (PF) Key Definitions" in topic 4.2.3.5 and "How 
             to Lock or Unlock a Window" in topic 4.2.3.3.6. 




   VLINE    
The VLINE window displays a vertical bar on line 4 in the HEADER 
             stream.  If you try to type in this window, your keyboard locks. 
             Press the RESET key to unlock the keyboard. 




   PASSWD   
Located after the VLINE window is the PASSWD window. This window 
             can be used to type in any information you do not want displayed 
             on the screen (such as the passwords for data sets). Any 
             information you enter from this window goes to the TSOIN stream. 
             The PASSWD window displays the SMOUT stream. If you receive an 
             error message from a Session Manager command, you will see the 
             message in this window.
