The tasks and associated parameters that the cicsterm command supports.

cicsterm [-s[=servername]|-r[=servername]]
[-t=[initialtransid]]
[-k=keyfile] 
[-c=colorfile]

To stop a terminal emulator, enter the string specified by the Terminal exit configuration setting from an empty terminal screen, and then press Enter. The default string is EXIT.

The following table shows the tasks and associated parameters that the cicsterm command supports:
Issue a single cicsterm command, with all the parameters you require, as shown in the following example:
   cicsterm -s=CICSTSW -t=CESN -k=mykeys.ini -c=mycols.ini
            -n=cicsv123 -f=clprint.txt -q

In this example:

-s=CICSTSW
A 3270 terminal emulator is started for the server CICSTSW.
-t=CESN
The initial transaction is CESN.
-k=mykeys.ini
The keyboard mapping file is mykeys.ini.
-c=mycols.ini
The color mapping file is mycols.ini.
-n=cicsv123
The 3270 terminal emulator characteristics are defined by the terminal definition cicsv123.
-f=clprint.txt
The print file will be appended to the file clprint.txt.
-q
The display of messages output by the command is disabled.

All cicsterm parameters are optional. If you enter the cicsterm command without any parameters, defaults are taken from the configuration file. On Windows this is equivalent to using the CICS® Terminal Start menu shortcut.
