Both TSO and NetView allow clists and execs to  coexist in their CLIST
libraries.  Refering to the content of the library as "clists" seems 
reasonable to me.  But more to the point: it doesn't matter.  Once
we're talking 3270 datastream it doesn't much matter what created it.

The logmode is absolutely irrelevant in theory.  The non-display 
attribute has existed since before logmodes.   It sounds like either 
the 3270 emulator involved has incorrectly incorrectly tied something
to logmode processing, or the program building the datastream has
implemented the non-display as some extended attribute (if such an
an extended attribute exists) rather than using a simple field 
attribute.

Chris's statement is correct.
