Main Title
The main title (third line, center) denotes the general classification of
functions currently accessible by the user (such as MAIN or
PERFORMANCE).
Cursor Controls
The terminal interface utilizes a highlighted cursor to make selections from
menus and select fields within the screens to be operated on. The cursor is
moved in different ways, depending on the terminal emulation program used.
Most programs allow use of the TAB and SHIFT+TAB keys. Others allow
use of the arrow keys. Once a field is highlighted, it is manipulated as
described in the section Field Types.
For keyboards that do not have these standard keys or have only some of
them, an alternate set if cursor commands is provided. Each command is
performed by pressing a letter key while holding down the CONTROL key.
Alternate commands may be freely mixed with the keyboard commands at
your discretion. Table 4-A shows the keyboard and equivalent commands.
Field Types
Each screen is made up of fields. The two basic types are user-selectable and
display-only. If the highlighted cursor can be moved to a field, it is a user-
selectable field. All other fields are for display only. User-selectable fields
allow for changes to be made or commands to be executed.
Fields without brackets or parenthesis are display-only. They cannot be
changed on the screen. Most user-selectable fields are enclosed in brackets or
parenthesis and are described in the following paragraphs.
Fields enclosed in brackets [ ] offer a list of selections from which to choose.
The selections may be toggled by pressing the spacebar. Each time it is
pressed, a new item appears. When the appropriate choice is displayed, press
ENTER to select it.
Fields enclosed in parenthesis ( ) are manipulated by one of the following
methods:
