-
- We do something like that with USSMSG 10 (That's the startup screen that
- VTAM presents to the terminal. Or something like that.). It puts up a
- screen that looks like a menu. Something like:
-
- A) Appl 1
- B) Appl 2
- etc...
-
- Then we define USSCMDs A, B, etc so that they LOGON to that application
- when they enter the relevant command. Pretty primitive. But, you get
- what you pay for.
-
- If it were important enough to someone, I guess I could come up with
- an example. :-)
