    'To run this sample, create a demo session with the Hotst name/IP address set to "demo:ibm3270.sim".
    'Then log in with any credentials, enter ISPF on the next screen, and run this code in a code module.

        'At this point, you can use the hotspot but it is saved in memory only and will not be available if you close and reopen the session.
        'To make the persist when you close and reopen the session, you'll need to save it to a hotspots map.
        
        'This saves the new hotspot in the current hotspots map file.
