This command is similar to PIE\_OFF except that it allows you to
disable background screen access for specific multitasking jobs if you
wish (reverting to the original Pointer Environment method of managing
windows). The same parameters as for PEON can be used to specify the
Jobs or windows to be affected.

**NOTE**

PEX should not be used with PIE.
