Ray,
There is. See the following lines:
(...)
unset OVwSessionLoc # We don't use NetView map selections
(...)
#
# Start dialog box
xnmappmon -commandTitle "Select & Test Location"\
-commandHeading "Please enter Name or IP Adress..."\
-appendSelectList -appendSelectListToTitle\
-unbufIO -cmd ${CMD}
(...)
