Does 3270 protocol require that PAS fields be writable, therefore tabbable?
Bad design. It's perfectly reasonable to want to specify a read-only PAS
menu item. (Too few bits in the attribute byte?)
I've done lots of 3270 programming, but am unaware of what a point-and-shoot
field is. I don't remember any such bits in an attribute byte?
That's funny! Of course, there is no such things as a "point and shoot"
field in 3270! LOL!
The notion of "point and shoot" hinges entirely on how the 3270
application in question chooses to interpret the cursor position when an
AID-generating key is pressed.
