Configuring tn5250 / xt5250

[kim gabrielsen <kim.gabrielsen@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm trying to configure tn5250.

Having read the thread initiated by mr. Syd Nicholson I have some clues
on what to look for by not how to correct it.

I'm running tn5250 0.16.0pre2 and suse 6.3. and I have not fiddled with
any setup files like XTerm; not the one supplied with tn5250 nor the one
placed under the X11 diectory..... Honest :-)

I'm using:

xt5250 map=277 hostname

and it gives me an OS/400 login screen as I expected.

But my problems are:

1) The xterm is small and difficult to read. Isn't possible to change
the size / font of this window.?

2) How do i reconfigure the backspace key so it deletes characters and
not just move the cursor?

3) How do i configure the 'enter' key to become the 'field exit' key

4) How do I configure right-ctrl to become the enter key

I'm a newbie to AS/400 and terminal emulation and my users are not very
patient, so they probably will complain if I have to become an AS/400
expert first. Please supply some input.

Best regards and keep up the good work

Kim Gabrielsen
