A Program for Signing on to TSO

ACL/E programs are most commonly used to automatically sign CA TPX users on to their application sessions. A program that signs you on to TSO is shown below. This program automates the steps you would take during a manual signon, such as checking to make sure you are at the TSO user ID prompt, typing your user ID and password or password phrase, and pressing the Enter key.
