​I tried it. Experience was worse than TN5250j so I still use that and

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?
