It's actually "X II" (II means "input inhibited") not X11 which is
something else entirely :)

Told you my terminology stunk :-)

Using IBM's java applet the X11 shows up, but the 'reset' seems to
happen automatically. Can I recreate that behaviour using tn5250?

Sure.  Just set the +uninhibited config option.

Looking at the change log I'm guessing this is it

Add "uninhibited" flag to Tn5250Display, for automatic release of Input

  Inhibited state when movement keys and functions keys are used.
  Defaults to false for compatibility with previous versions.

So I guess I'll have to update to the current version.

ran into trouble.

but in the meantime I'll try the configure/make/makeinstall route.
