Allow keyboard shortcuts on the password about to expire message in the 5250 emulator

When the ACS 5250 emulator displays the "password about to expire, do you want to change it" message, you have to use the mouse to click Yes or No. Please provide keyboard shortcuts so that you can just press Y or N to answer the question. The Windows based emulator provided the keyboard shortcuts.


Use Case:

I'm starting my 5250 emulator and the message is displayed.

    The functionality you are requesting is already available in the latest version. Using the alt key combined with Y or N will allow you to answer the dialog without using the mouse.
