Graphical DDS - it's already here!

[ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ]
Much has been said about a desire for a graphical interface using the 5250
data stream. Guess what, it's already here. This image (will it get through?)

57ce4c5.jpg

is from the Client Access emulation. Those are pushbuttons in the lower
left, with accelerator keys (just the key, no Alt, when you have focus on
the button). You can click on the button with a mouse.

Also available are dropdown menus, scrollbars, checkboxes, and radio buttons.

This is the code for the above:

      A          R RECORD
      A                                  2 40'MENU'
      A            F1             2Y 0B 24  2PSHBTNFLD
      A                                      PSHBTNCHC(1 'C>md1' CF01)
      A                                      PSHBTNCHC(2 'E>nter')

Check it out! It will also display on normal dumb terminals, character-based.

Regards and Merry Christmas!
