When you select this option, the ISPF Command Shell panel shown
in
Figure 1 is displayed. You can enter TSO
commands, CLISTs, and REXX EXECs on the Command line of any panel
and in the Line Command field on data set list displays (option 3.4).
However, the ISPF Command Shell panel provides additional capabilities:
- You can enter TSO commands, ISPF commands, CLISTs, and REXX execs
in a separate, but optional, ISPF Command field. This field is displayed only if your installation
chooses to do so. The default panel shown in Figure 1 does
not display this field. When you use this field, commands that are
typed in the TSO Command Entry field (==>) are not blanked out
when you enter the SPLIT command to split the screen.
- You can enter Session Manager mode, but only if this licensed
program is installed. See Using the session manager for
more information.
- You can enter a long command that continues on these two lines.
