Re: ACS emulator macros - where located, and are there duplicates?

Hi Jack


Yes, and that is where they are - there is only 1 instance of the macro I'm editing.


The thing is, that the edit does not seem to be known by the other open sessions, which I have all open in a batch. Let's say I have sessions A, B, C, and D - I edit the macro in session A, save and close the edit window. I open it, then, in session B, and the change is not there. And it says that the macro is located in the same place - "Personal Library", I believe that is the place you give here.


Cheers
Vern

Did you ever get past this, Vern?
In a "normal" installation, the macros are in $HOME/IBM/iAccessClient/Emulator
with a .mac extension.

Y'all


This is something I've not understood since ACS came out. I have a signon
macro that I use as an auto-macro, as well as _netrc, to streamline logging
on to 5250 sessions on 4 LPARs in a batch.


When I edit "the" macro - and I put that in quotes, because I'm not sure
there is only one - in each 5250 session in turn, it says it is in my
"Personal Library" - this happens to be in my company OneDrive, which is
synced with my company laptop.BTW, I realllllly don't like OneDrive.
