CICS-Windows goes beyond the definition of multiple sessions manager, it is a true multiple windows manager for CICS. It allows you to conduct up to nine concurrent CICS sessions and open as many windows simultaneously on one screen.
CICS-Windows increases productivity by having needed information simultaneously available on the same screen. You can have on your screen, all at the same time, application screens, help windows, menus, prior transactions, editors, notepads, and anything else that you may want to use. The windows can be thought of as mini-terminals in that all of the windows have the identical capabilities to the full screen.
CICS-Windows is user friendly and easy to use. It operates with or without PF and/or PA keys. You have complete control over whichever application is currently selected, and you can easily move from one window to another, using only one keystroke.
In addition to the various user functions, CICS-Windows provides a performance enhancing feature to all CICS online users. CICS-Windows provides data compression to optimize all terminal data streams, whether they are using CICS-Windows or not. This data compression feature can provide up to a 60 percent improvement in the throughput of CICS transactions.
