The Session Manager Display Screen

Figure 1 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.
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. 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.
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 and How to Lock or Unlock a Window.
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.
