Type-Ahead

Type-Ahead

Type-ahead queues additional keystrokes while OL Terminal waits for a host response after Enter, PF keys, or page navigation.

The status bar shows Queued: X with a yellow indicator while input waits. When the host responds, queued keys are processed sequentially. If another queued action requires a response, processing pauses again.

If the queue appears stuck, wait for host processing, check connection status, then refresh or restart the session if necessary. The queue is cleared safely when a connection error occurs.

Queue keystrokes safely while the host processes an action.
