  • Subject: RE: Named Indicators...

Why would any one want to use indicators to see what key an operator pressed
on the key board.  *INKA - *INKY or *IN01 -*IN24 is old fashioned.  Here is
our shop standard for controlling interactive screens.  The INFDS is updated
when ever control is returned to the program from a workstation read/exfmt.
DSPANL is the name of the record format read, CFKEY is the function key that
returned control to the program.  In the DDS we define all function keys to
avoid the dreaded keyboard error code that requires the user to press reset
and give no error message besides that 4 digit number that no users
understand.  This is really a self documenting code style.  We use /copy to
bring in all the listed "D" specs.
