terminal emulation, a "soft key" labeled "Quit Redirection" is available for quitting
console redirection.)

Switching to Text Mode in OS/2

If your server is running IBM OS/2, you can create a hot key to invoke an OS/2 full
screen session. Using the hot key, you send a series of keystroke combinations from the
remote console which then invokes a full screen session.

To create the hot key:

1. In OS/2 click on the desktop with the right mouse button to display the primary

Desktop menu.

2. Click the Open arrow. (Skip this step if you are using OS/2 Warp.)

3. Click Settings.

4. Click Menu, then drag the Desktop settings menu away so that the OS/2 System

folder is visible.

5. Open the OS/2 System folder, then open the Command Prompts folder within the

System folder.

6. Locate the OS/2 Full Screen icon within the Command Prompts folder, then click

the icon with the right mouse button to display the icon settings menu

7. Click the Open arrow.

8. Click Settings.

9. In the "Optional Parameters" entry area, type

%

.

10. Save the setting by closing the dialog box.

11. While holding down the Ctrl key, use the right mouse button to drag the OS/2 Full

Screen icon to the Desktop Settings menu and into the "Actions on menu: Primary
pop-up menu" window.

12. Click OS/2 Full Screen to select it.

13. Click Settings.

14. In the "Menu item name" field, type a tilde (~) in front of the character you want to

designate as the hot key. (Use a key that has not been designated as another hot
key.)

15. Click OK to save the setting.
