I really wish that somebody would write a native 3270 emulator for Linux/Intel. x3270 is OK, but really a bear and PITA compared to what I'm used to under Windows. I currently run an old version of QWS3270 that I bought years ago under Wine. It works, but I really perfer "native" applications. But I'll still use x3270 under Linux versus having to run Windows at home. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
