Chapter 25  Panels 

Panels is a module that enables you to build character-mode windowing
into an application.  It comprises a set of routines that you can call
from your COBOL programs.  The windowing features provided include
overlapping windows, separate or synchronized updating of text and
attributes, scrolling of text across a window and the creation of
pop-up/pull-down menus.

Panels is an alternative to the windowing syntax (see Chapter 26 ,
Windowing Support) where portability between UNIX and non-UNIX
environments is required.

For graphical-mode windowing, refer to the PanelsV2 documentation.
