In that case if you don't mind just send me a tarball of the whole thing. 
I can find the diffs from that.

I'm working on these same things.  Maybe if we work together we could find 
solutions better?  I have some stuff working and some not working.  I've 
got cursor progression, continued fields, some scroll bar, and enhanced 
windows.  If you don't mind, please me your entire source tree.  You can 
download my patched version of tn5250 at:

There is a tarball of tn5250 that includes my patches.  Let's work 
together on this and then submit it to CVS.
