Q.: How do I keep track of multiple sessions?
A.: Once you have an open session, you create a new session by selecting Open New Session from the File menu. This will cause your sessions to be numbered as you open them. You can see all the open sessions under the Window menu and select the number of a particular session to work with. Selecting Cascade in any session causes all the session windows to display across the screen in order.

These numbered sessions will also show up as icons in the Windows System Tray. You can also click on these numbered icons to switch between open sessions.

You can customize this further by selecting Window Title in Edit Session Profiles from the Options menu.

Q.: I am connecting to an MVS system in console mode and my commands are rejected. Why?
A.: To solve this you need to turn off the ability to automatically process chained I/O streams. To disable this feature, you'll need to add this line:

AllowChainedIO=Off

to the session profile you experience problems with. Section profiles are stored in the ITERM.INI file in your Windows folder. Each profile is preceeded by the profile name in square parenthesis, e.g. [MY_ROUTER]

While in an ANSI session, Select Host in Edit Session Profiles from the Options menu. Enter ANSI in the Telnet Name Override window. Save the configuration and profile.
