Re: TN5250 server for linux ...

[Michael Madore <mmadore@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Paulo,

The tn5250d code is not complete (and I don't currently have any time to
work on it).  At this point you can basically connect to the server with a
5250 emulator and get a nice test screen.  The framework is there if someone
wanted to work on it.  The source code is available at www.linux-sna.org.  I
can't remember if I ever put it into the CVS repository.  Jason?
