The development environment is the IBM Dallas Innovation Center. My other console is a VM session. (That should be a bumper sticker.)
I wonder how that affects things. Anyone have a clue?

Charles, if you're spear-heading this project, I suggest you wheedle your systems guys/gals into setting you up with SMCS. It's a native VTAM console application that comes as close to emulating a classic 3270 console as any software I've seen. There is no cost involved, but it requires some configuration. If your shop is already set up for it, they just need to add your userid to the mix. Simple editing. If starting from scratch, they need to do some prep work. Once you have it working, you will know--for better or worse--the effect of every little tweak and fiddle you perform. . .

Okay, anyone have any clues as to how to align the stars? My "console" experience is with SDSF LOG, not a real console, so my perception of where messages hang is a little skewed I guess.

Non-rolling (no delete) messages do not hang 'at the bottom'. They hang as high as they can based on any other non-rolling messages that preceded them. A non-rolling message that stays toward the bottom is there only because a lot of other non-rolling messages are preventing it from rolling higher. Getting the attributes right for a non-rolling message can be tricky, including the status of the task that issued it. If the stars are aligned, a message can 'stay on the screen' indefinitely as long as console mode is RD and the task that issued it is still active. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
