Change default cursor location .

When I press the escape key (which is usually an ATTN key) while inside a session, then the cursor will default to the first session on the main menu.

In a previous version ( 1.4.7) the cursor was always positioned on the current session when returning to the main CL/Supersession menu

We would like this behavior to be the same in the version 3.1 .

    The runtime option KLSOPTSH, which sorts active sessions high on a user's session menu, can be enabled if specified in your RLSCMDS(KLSSTART):

    NTD KLSSOPTS 'KLSOPTSH 0' -- (or not specified) No change to sorting active sessions
    NTD KLSSOPTS 'KLSOPTSH 1' -- Sort active user sessions to the top of their session list on KLSVSELx

    If you implement this new feature, your users would always have their active sessions at the top of their KLSVSELx page.

    This feature would not require us to go find the active session on page 2 or page 12 since it is always on the main panel of the User?s KLSVSELx page.

    Hi

    We had the same issue and found that the following customization ensured that the cursor lands on the command line instead of first session when hitting ATTN:


    SKLSPNLS Member: KLSSTAT

    Add following statements in the first 2 lines of the member (i.e. before continue statement):

    set ZTBCSROW ''

    set syscsr cmd
