Speaking of thoughts...  It's been a while since I examined the
tn5250 source code in some depth, but, how hard would it be to 
extend the lib5250 to be a generic lib3270/5250 that could handle 
(based on terminal type) the differences between 5250 and 3270 
datastreams.  My code still uses a front end datastream processor
and one or more back end I/O processors.  This is because I am
emulating multiple LU's from one control program.  Screen Scraping.

The basic functions that the terminals use are very similar, it's 
just that they use different opcodes to accomplish those functions.

Maybe Release 0.91 ?
