  Users are unable to download files from ISPF Opt 6 on the 3270
  host when PCOMM is configured with a Mod5 27x132 screen size.
  When the file is selected for download and the user selects
  receive, the PCOMM session hangs until the timeout period
  expires (Text or Binary mode transfer). This happens because
  the host waits infinitely for the ENTER key to be sent from
  the client.
  

Problem conclusion

• PCSLT.DLL has been changed to send the ENTER key when the host
  requests it.
  
  Fixed in Manufacturing Refresh PCOM 5.9.5.0
