Move the cursor to the end of pasted text in a field

Currently when pasting text into any field in PCOMM the cursor remains at the beginning of the field. We would like the ability to change this behavior to have the cursor automatically reposition to the end of the pasted text in the field (IE if we paste text that is 8 characters then the cursor would reposition to column 9).

    Enhancement to the Edit -> Paste functionality
    With IBM Personal Communications V12.0, it is now possible to let the cursor position move to the end of pasted area. This requires the following keyword to be added to the "pcswin.ini" file. This increases users' productivity when pasting line after line to green screen.
    [Edit]
    MoveCursorToEndOfPastedData=Y

    This feature is available in PCOMM v12, v13 and v14 versions.

    Sample PCSWIN.INI file with the above keyword looks like:

    [Profile]
    ID=INI
    Version=6
    [Edit]
    MoveCursorToEndOfPastedData=Y
    [LastExitView]
