Re: display bnddir in RDP?

To Gene

There is a 5250 emulator from Arcad - free - that you can run inside 
RDP. I believe you can run an object user option and have output to that 
emulator.

Something to verify - it's been a long time since I tried it.

To Mike
A binding directory is not source-based, right? So it doesn't lend 
itself well to the GUI. Of course, didn't someone come out with a way to 
edit a data area recently? That's not source-based, either.

This is probably an RFE thing, but it seems we might like more of the 
things we can do in Navigator, but do we really want them in RDP? I 
know, one place to work. RDP is not positioned as a system management 
app, the way PDM is. Yet we are told that RDP is the replacement for PDM.

Questions! Questions! Questions!
