Re: Anyway to programatically edit the Session F9 history?

I don't know what release you are on, but the JOBLOG_INFO table function
that might be useful. It is available for both 7.1 and 7.2. You can
write a query it to pick out any messages you want from a joblog and write
them to a permanent file. The documentation for it is here in the
Knowledge Center:

subject: Anyway to programatically edit the Session F9 history?

One relatively unique feature of bash, and as of version 5.0 in
powershell
is that your command history is saved across sessions. I'd like the same
for my 5250 session.

So is there some kind of API call to read and write from that list? Seems
like if that existed, then one could write a save and retrieve history
program from the signon/signoff program.
