I added support for a simple "rule lines" to CVS for 0.17.1.  This is
similar to choosing "Rule Lines = On, CrossHair" under Client Access 
Express.

I made the crosshair by reverse-imaging the lines on the screen, since
tn5250 is strictly a text application, I couldn't draw actual lines on
the screen (without erasing other text on the screen)

To try it, check out the current version from CVS, and do:

       xt5250 +ruler as400

or add +ruler to your tn5250rc.
