Command File support in remote debugger

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

When running a Debug Tool session under MFI in 3270, you can use a command script by pointing to a command file from within the DTCN profile. If running a remote debug session, using the same file in the DTCN profile for the remote session, this will not work.

Here are some examples from the Debug Console:

EQA2266I *** Commands file commands follow ***
00001025 SET LOG ON;
EQA2428E This command is either invalid or unsupported.
00002025 CLEAR LOG;
EQA2428E This command is either invalid or unsupported.
00002125 SET MSGID OFF;
EQA2428E This command is either invalid or unsupported.
00002225 CLEAR AT;
EQA2428E This command is either invalid or unsupported.

We would ike to have the same functionality in the GUI as in the 3270 interface.

    There is an existing tab called "Debug Console Commands" on the debug launch configs that serves this purpose. The commands in the DT command language can be entered will be run when the debug session connects to the UI. One caveat is that the list of console commands allowed for remote is a subset of those allowed in 3270. There are numerous other RFEs that address this discrepancy. Closing this RFE as delivered, and will track the differences between 3270 and remote via the other RFEs.
