Comments

• File Manager has been enhanced in order to provide remote
  services for the following types of resource;
  -> QSAM, VSAM, PDS or PDSE including load libraries.
  -> CICS files
  -> File Manager templates in read access
  
  Copy, print and editor functions are useable with remote service
  Templates from a remote location may be used, but not edited.
  
  An additional primary menu option has been added in order to
  provide for storing details such as userid, password, tcpip
  address, port number and a short name for a remote connection.
  
  Remote connections include the case where an alternate userid
  owns a resource on a local system.
  A remote resource is denoted by the syntax:
  RM:nickname:resourcename
