Hi Richard,
Could you please send me a copy of the ILRBIRD source (if it is not proprietary)?

Thanks and regards,
David

Our site has a TSO CLEAR command that "clears the 3270 display screen and places the cursor at 
row1, column 1". The site documentation says "The CLEAR TSO command processor is provided 
from the SHARE tape.".

CLEAR may be an alias for another program name.

Subject: Two TSO terminal I/O from Rexx questions

1. If one were writing a Rexx exec to run in an interactive TSO environment, 
what would be the best way to clear the screen and make the next SAY write to 
the first line of the screen? Calling out to a user-written assembler routine 
that used the STLINENO macro? Or ... ?

2. From a Rexx exec running in interactive TSO, what would be the best way to 
determine the number of lines on the terminal? Basically the number of SAYs 
that one could do before the user received a *** prompt?

Any related considerations?

Thanks,
Charles
