Re: 132 Columns...

Hi:

I'm new to the TN5250 application. I like what I see so far but I'm
curious about one thing. In order to get 132 columns, do I have to be
using xt5250?

Currently, I'm trying to use just TN5250 without X11 on either OpenBSD or
NetBSD, but font changes don't seem to work. I've got a .tn5250rc file
that looks something like this:

as400{
host = HOST
env.TERM = IBM-3477-FC
map = 37
font_80=-*-fixed-*-*-*-*-*-200-75-100-*-*-*-*
font_132=-*-fixed-*-*-*-*-*-200-75-100-*-*-*-* #(Not sure why these
would be the same)

#font_80=10x20
#font_132=6x13
}

dsp01 {
host = 10.1.1.1
font_80=10x20
font_132=6x13
env.DEVNAME=Openbsd
env.TERM=IBM-3477-FC
}

The other thing is, I don't know what fonts are available to either of
these operating systems when running in console mode.

Any suggestions would be appreciated....
