How use pF9 (Swap feature) while in OMVS

Post by demecarv »

I recentely learned two very usefull commands: Split New and SwapBar. This help me a lot as I can just pF9 between multiple windows. Unfortunatelly, I didn't figure out how to swap between the screens when I am in Open MVS Unix Shell. I always have to exit from OMVS shell if I wan to swap to other window. Is that correct or does it exist some friendly way to swap between OMVS shell and other utility (e.g. UdList)?

As far as I recall, it is not possible to get the PF9 swap working with OMVS -- you must exit OMVS as you have discovered.
