Using a utility called RTVEXITKEY I found on-line from Bob Cozzi I coded
some CL to check for F3 Exit after an IBM command. It works, but then a
subsequent run of the same program will exit after pressing enter instead
of running.

Worse, calling a different CL program (from a menu) that has the same
utility will cause IT to think F3 has been pressed, and exit instead of
running when enter is pressed.

I debugged it and found the data in &JOBINFO doesn't get reset. Here is the
statement:

CALL PGM(QUSRJOBI) PARM(&JOBINFO &RTNLEN +
'JOBI0600' &JOB &INTJOBID)

After you've pressed F3 in program A and then run program B from the same
menu, &JOBINFO will still have a '1' in position 103, meaning F3 has been
pressed, even though you haven't done so in program B.

I don't know much about API calls. Can I reset that area of storage
somehow? I don't like to clear the whole field as there's loads of data in
there and it might screw something else up.
