Re: Finer points of the IBM emulator

The only issue with File, Run the same, is that, if you say call it ROBS1
on your IBM i, then the connect will fail since that's already in use. You
just have to change the device name.

See also the main ACS screen and Management, "5250 Session Manager". Or
General, 5250 Emulator.

"Run the same"?!? <blink> <facepalm> <crossed-eyes> <jaw hitting floor>

I think that if an award were to be given out for the most
counterintuitive phrasing of a menu item, that would have to be the
all-time winner.

(For the record, in the emulator nearest and dearest to my heart, that
function is a toolbar icon of two terminals, one in front of the other,
with a tooltip of "open another session.")
