The requester skeleton is provided with the Pathmaker product and contains the code
and commands that the Pathmaker product uses to generate a requester’s source code.
For information on modifying this skeleton, refer to Section 9.
The requester copy library is an optional file that the Pathmaker product will create if
you request. If you want to add your own SCREEN COBOL code to the requester the
Pathmaker product generates, add it in the sections of the requester copy library.
T9154CPY is a file supplied with the Pathmaker product that contains information
(such as the video attributes for messages and the screen timeout limit) that the
Pathmaker product will use when generating a requester.
