RE: Mochasoft 5250 emulator column separators

I am hoping what you mean is the little .... for DSPATR(CS).
We use Mopchasoft and we got these to show up by changing the EBCIDIC
character for .

Go to Setting then EBCIDIC translation.

Hello Reeve,

ENTFLDATR is a 5250 GUI extension.  The Mochasoft emulator (like most
emulators)
does not support any of the 5250 GUI extensions (on the grounds that nobody
uses
them -- but if the emulators supported them then more programmers would use
them).

I would expect that to work in most emulators but then Mochasoft is only
$25.
What do you expect for almost nothing?

>Is this a characteristic of this emulator or have I missed something?

Yes and sort of.
