Forget the 5250 emulator you are using, it is possible between to different interactive jobs?

I’m guessing with creative thinking and using things like user queues or users spaces one could build a program to accomplish your goal, but ACS (or other emulator) are not the key to it.

think of it as communicating between jobs, or creating a new on line job and causing the display to go. (Good luck with the last piece, how do you know which telnet device to use., again I’m guessing it might be possible but it would be quite the task)
