CLIST ICQICF starts ISPF and invokes the first application for the user. As shipped by IBM®, ICQICF invokes ICQUSER, the TSO/E - Use Services application. Before displaying the primary user menu, ICQICF invokes ICQGCC10, which theninvokes the news service, CLIST ICQCNC10, to display any "new" news.

You can modify start-up processing by specifying a command string using the ICQICF INIT parameter.

Another way to modify start-up processing is by providing a start-up function in the first application that ICQICF invokes. That start-up function is performed before the processing is done for the application. You can use Application Manager panels to add start-up functions to applications. For information about how to use Application Manager, see .

You can also add calls to other CLISTs, programs, or ISPF dialogs to ICQGCC10, to include other processing that your installation needs for start-up. If you add calls to other routines, return all message IDs to ICQGCC10, and process the messages in ICQGCC10 to display a combined message or show all the messages on one panel.
