What Is ACL/E?

Automated Conversation Language/Extended (ACL/E) is a high-level programming language oriented to the 3270 keyboard. ACL/E automates routine interactions, such as application session signon and signoff, and provides powerful tools that enhance the way users see and use applications. For example, ACL/E works with the CA TPX panel manager to display alternate screen images. This capability serves a wide range of purposes, from supplying customized help panels for applications to re-engineering user interfaces for SAA compliance. ACL/E's ability to coordinate multiple application sessions provides state-of-the-art application integration.
