RE: Jacada Seagull and the like

Except they don't work with legacy systems, Leif.  You can't take an
existing program and easily convert it to work with ETK.  The web interface
works with "programs generated with ETK".

PSC400 works with any program, although my automatic conversion only works
with RPG/400 and RPG ILE.  With PSC400, you can take an existing program,
run a simple command, and in about 30 seconds you can have a fully converted
program, with everything generated for a web interface.  Recompile and
you're up and running.  And the converted program still works as a green
screen application.
