Gil,

I don't recall the differences, but as long as I can remember the way to
cancel most things in TSO was to "reset then PA1" or "Reset then ATTN" This
was on real CRT and emulators.

I don't recall RESET alone doing anything but unlocking the terminal for the
PA1 or ATTN.

Better people than me can explain the difference.
