Neat idea.   Could you do this by creating a seperate profile for each
user?  something like:

matt {
   env.DEVNAME=matt01
   host = example
}
bob {
   env.DEVNAME=bob01
   host = whatever
}
mary {
   env.DEVNAME=mary01
   host = as400
}

Or wouldn't that work?   How does Windows know what user you're signed
in under?

Making TN5250 change the terminal name by inserting a User-ID would be
somewhat more indepth, but I'd be willing to give it a try.  I just
don't know how to determine who is currently signed on :)
