Hi,
I added the code to do this into CVS & also updated the tarball on my
web site.
It only works from the config file (not from the command-line, since that
looked a bit more complicated to do) so to use it you'll make a tn5250rc
file similar to:
test {
host = as400
env.DEVNAME=$loginname$01
font_80=Terminal
}
and then run:
tn5250 test
Keep in mind, of course, that OS/400 device names cannot exceed 10 chars
in length.
Have fun!
