You can place function key verbiage by using the window title keyword. I've only done it once and don't remember the keyword syntax but I do remember that you can set the alignment on the line.

If I [ab]use SFLMSG as described before, I get the function key legend,
but it disappears when the system refreshes the screen. Fine if I'm
doing "SFLPAG=SFLSIZ" mode, but not if I'm doing "SFLSIZ > SFLPAG" mode.

If I do
< A 19 1'F12=Cancel' >
< A COLOR(BLU) >

with WINDOW(2 18 19 59), I get CPD7830: Start line number too large.

and if I do it with WINDOW(2 18 19 59 *NOMSGLIN), I get CPD7812:
Subfile control record overlaps subfile record.

Is there a trick for putting a function key legend line on the bottom of
a window, below a subfile? I know that in non-window applications, I use
a separate RECORD for the function key legend(s) below a subfile, but I
don't see how that could work with a window.
