Re: tn5250 fixed (I hope)

[Scott Klement <klemscot@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mike,

Yes, your changes did fix the problem.  Thank you.  

The "normal" installation procedure (autogen.sh, configure, make, make
install) works fine under FreeBSD...

We talked a month or two ago about setting up the installation procedure
to install the FreeBSD keyboard mapping under FreeBSD and the Linux
keyboard mapping under Linux.   Perhaps I should work on that again...
If we took all the Linux-specific stuff out of the "main" Makefile, it
should also help you with the UnixWare port...
