<
operating system> (TPX) A multiple session manager used to
access
mainframe applications. It was written by {Morgan
Stanley}, acquired by
Duquesne Systems and is now owned by
Computer Associates. TPX allows you to work in multiple
mainframe applications concurrently; lock and unlock your TPX
screen; place your applications on hold; logon to TPX from a
different
terminal without losing your place; customize your
TPX menu and send a screen image to another TPX user.
TPX runs on
MVS and
VM. On VM, like
VTAM, it uses the
MVS-like facilities of
GCS. It has a complete
scripting
facility and lets you see other user's sessions. The
client-server version allows each managed session to open in
its own window. Richard Kuebbing has built a complete e-mail
system into it.
