How to launch the Terminal wizard at a specific point? Or use your keyboard directly

Hi! I’m working on a project that uses terminal packages for a 5250 AS400 application, and I’ve got a few questions—or maybe just looking for some tips or insights.

What’s bothering me the most is that every time I launch the wizard, I can’t type directly—I always have to use commands. Does that mean that whenever I want to record something, like capturing text, I have to use the wizard commands instead of just typing? That really doesn’t feel efficient, especially for later-stage processes.

Another thing: when I try to debug, I can’t interact with the terminal window. It would be great if I could! Even better if I could launch the wizard at a specific point—that would really make development smoother. If that’s not possible, I can still manage, but honestly, it feels like trying to code with my hands tied.

Waiting your insights, feedback, or even links to documentation to read, because I cannot find easily something useful by myself. Thanks for reading me!

Thanks for the answer! It had some good tips, but it’s not quite what I really needed for debugging and developing fasteners.

You cannot do either.

I use a third party terminal to do the steps manually and as I do them I code the activities. If I need things like row/column positions as I go, I can get them from the third party client.

I never use the wizard. It’s basically useless.

Looks like I was right to worry. Thanks for the feedback!

I hope Internal labs release something less hard to manage for complex process.

Sorry, It was not my intention, I did not know the robot Icon is for that, my bad.
