The /ECHO command either echoes input data back to the sending terminal or formats a 3270-type terminal with constant data so that additional data can then be entered to complete an input command. This command is especially useful in combination with the /PF and /PA commands to allow a lengthy command format to be called up onto a terminal with a single keystroke.
This command has the following format:
/ECHO,{M|MSG}=text
Defines a character string to echo back to the terminal. MSG and M can be used interchangeably, but one or the other is required. If commas are included as part of the text, enclose the entire message text in parentheses.
If the last character of the MSG text is a # sign, the cursor is moved to that location when the command is echoed to the terminal. This method is provided to allow preformatting of command input.
Limits: 1 to 60 alphanumeric characters
