Can someone point me at examples of reassigning pfkey functions in
ISPF panels? Doing an application (in REXX!) using ISPF panels & such, and
"they" want PF6 to be the "go do it" key.....
I've done a fair amount of fishing thru the online books at
http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/LIBRARY
but haven't come up with anything obvious yet...
Thanks for any help/pointers/ideas/examples.....

Your dialog can easily set a function key to any value you want; e.g.
zpf06 = "GODOIT"
"VPUT (ZPF06) PROFILE"
However, a better approach is to use a KEYLIST. That way, the user has the
option of using the keys your dialog "recommends" or using their own
function key definitions. Note that KEYLISTS are defined using DTL, but can
be used equally well in DTL and non DTL panels.
One thing I strongly recommend is that your dialog should NOT concern itself
with what function key was pressed. If you want to assign PF06 to execute a
specific command as a convenience for the user, that's fine. But if the user
manually enters the command on the command line, or reassigns their function
keys so PF06 does something entirely different, this should be of no
consequence to your dialog. In other words, your dialog should only be
concerned with WHAT command was entered and not HOW the command was entered.
HTH,
Dave Salt

Schwarzbauer, Joe
The standard way to handle this in ISPF is not to rely on
the PF key itself in your program, but to design a
"go do it" command your program will understand, and
assign the command to a PF key in an ispf keylist.
The keylist would be specific to your application
(one keylist could be shared among several panels
in the same application, or you could have more than
one keylist per application, your choice).
The ISPF user would then be free to move the command
to another key and your program would be able to
function.
If desired, you could also provide a function
to restore the function keys to their initial values.
Hope this helps,
Joe S.

I _hate_ keylists. The advice you've gotten already is probably good
advice, but I _still_ hate keylists. Go see
http://web.tampabay.rr.com/mvsrexx/REXX/tblook.txt and scroll down to
section BD_SHOW_TABLE (it's in alphabetical order).
