I agree that that wording in the command help text is very confusing.

>From the security reference manual (V4R5):

     The Limit capabilities field in the user profile
     and the ALWLMTUSR parameter on commands apply only
     to commands that are run from the command line, the
     Command Entry display or an option from a command
     grouping menu. Users are not restricted from doing
     the following:

      - Running commands in CL programs that are running
     a command as a result of taking an option from a menu

     - Running remote commands through applications, such as FTP.

In view of that, I have no idea what is meant by "a command entry screen"
from which a limited user is supposed to be able to run restricted
commands. I would have thought that the command entry display was a commamd
entry screen.
