Since the gnome/gtk stuff isn't finished, you have to get it from CVS.
First, get & install version 0.17.x from CVS:
1) Set the CVSROOT environment variable to:
:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/tn5250
2) If you haven't done so for the user-id/machine you're on, log in
by typing: cvs login
When it asks for the password for 'anonymous', just hit enter.
3) Now check out tn5250:
cvs checkout tn5250
4) You need to have already installed glib (or glib-devel if installing
from an RPM) as well as automake, autoconf and libtool.
5) Build tn5250:
cd tn5250
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
su (become root)
make install
6) Now you can do the gnome/gtk part. This requires gtk-1.2.x or higher
(devel versions for RPMs) and optionally gnome.
cvs checkout gnome-5250
cd gnome-5250
./autogen.sh
./configure (or ./configure --disable-gnome)
make
su (become root)
make install
7) You should now be able to try it out. Either run gtk-5250 or
gnome-5250.
Bear in mind that not all features work. It hasn't been finished. :)
Keyboard mapping is currently hardcoded. Fonts can only be set using
the font_80 & font_132 keywords. Most of the menu buttons you can
click don't work. You can't cut/paste yet.
