Re: iSeries Access V5.7 mouse behavior

I do not remember that the emulator has ever had the double-click doing an ENTER by default. I have always had to set this manually when I have created a new emulator session.
I believe you or someone else mentioned that the emulator should behave like one of the terminals that accepts mouse input. I can't see that being the case, as the emulator came out long before a mouse became a common item on PCs or terminals, IIRC. PC Support rears its ugly head, but it already used the PCOMM emulator that was available at the time. And again, IIRC, you had more choices for the terminal type in those days - now basically size is all we get.
