IBM iAccess

Since it is the official IBM solution I’m trying to use this new product on my Mac. To say I’m disappointed/underwhelmed so far is to put it mildly.

No hot-spot recognition that I can find (unlike TN5250J, Mochasoft and others).

Doesn’t even pretend to be a native app. Other Java based tools that I use appear just like any other Mac app. This one launches a terminal window (DOS prompt for the Windows’ites) which _has_ to remain active or the app dies. This despite the fact that it is documented as Mac specific.

Any other Mac users got any suggestions for me before I just give up and go back to wrestling with customizing TN5250J?
