The screen is character oriented and divided vertically and horizontally into regions. Rows range from
1 (the top line) to C max (the bottom line). Columns range from 1 (left-most) to R max (right most).
Row 1 is the title line. The title is presented as centered on the line. On the first page, the title line is
passed to the driver when it is invoked. On the remaining pages the title is derived from the Title IFR
operand. Left and right arrows are displayed as the left most two character of all but the root title pages
(for use with mouse navigation). They are used equivalently with the browser left and right arrows.
Two options are also on the top line: “F2=Back” is flush left while “F3=Exit” is presented flush right
(in positions similar to those on a browser).
Row R max is used for keys help. The text for the keys help is carried by the Setup driver.
