Glossary of Terms
Some of the terms that are used in the Exec (PrtSc) menu are defined below.
Page Reset
Page resets are executed when the session or terminal is reset or defaulted. When a page reset is performed, it
affects all pages, and the following events occur: the page is erased, the cursor is homed, and scrolling regions
are defaulted. All line attributes (such as double-high/wide, locked lines) are reset to normal. Split screens are
cleared to a normal, single screen and protect mode is turned off.
