Scott, I have. I've got a couple of scripts that I use. I think I borrowed large chunks of them from examples from somewhere. One is a child process that starts when the session starts (via the script keyword in the hosts file) and waits on a pipe to receive instructions. The other is a script I run when I want to transfer a file and it send commands to the pipe. Maybe more than you want or need but hopefully they will be of some help.
Attaching them here: (See attached file: pthvm1_child.bash)(See attached file: buildps) Not sure what the listserver will do to attachments so I've CCed you direct. I haven't looked at these in ages so I can't tell you too much more about them, but if you have any questions feel free to contact me. I'm sure I can resurrect the memories.

Sent by: Linux on 390 Port <LINUX-390@vm.marist.edu> Anyone out there played with x3270 scripting? I'm specifically interested in scripting file transfers... and there is a 'transfer' action that should be able to be used in a script. I've tried a few things but can't seem to understand what's needed within a script.. x3270if transfer(....) ? I try going to actions and enter 'script /home/scott/test' to execute my script but get weird results. It also seems like the next time I try to perform any action after a failed script, x3270 crashes - which has made things even more frustrating. Anyway - thought this might be a good group to ask.. I'd really like to be able to do a bit more with x3270 on my Linux workstation.
