I guess that depends on which manual you are using to decipher the  
5250 data-stream. The "current" reference is a combination of the  
5494 Remote Control Unit Functions Reference, the DSM APIs, plus a  
few APARs related to WSG and Unicode enablement.

The 5494 Functions Reference specifically mentions the InfoWindow II  
display.
