My point exactly. That and I would also assert that since real 5250
terminals don't repeat field exit, if an emulator does, it's because the
developer thereof either wasn't aware that real terminals don't, or felt
that to suppress repeats on field exit would be a lot of trouble for
little or no benefit.

Or both.

Oh, and I stand corrected on the "overpriced" part where CA and Navigator
are concerned. From where I sit, though, they still look like bloatware
that (in the case of the latter) an awful lot of people only use because
they have no other choice.
