Re: Regarding Synon

Synon is not free-of-charge I'm not sure you can easily even get a trial version.

The number of customers using the product is diminishing due in part to CA's constant price increases. There's also the problem as to how long the product will be viable - particularly now that one of IBM's premium business and Merlin partners Arcad have a good tool that goes from the Synon specs to maintainable, efficient modern RPG.

Unless the OP has a specific job they are trying to land it seems to me that learning Synon right now is a dead end. It is not really that easy a tool to learn either.

But if someone has to learn using this product then is it not
freely available to be installed in mochasoft so that who have not used it
could learn it free of cost?

As mochasoft is freely available for anyone to download and learn
AS/400(IBM i) similarly is any of the synon version not available to
download and learn it free of cost?

Huh?

What does CA 2E (long, long ago known as Synon/2E) have to do with
mochasoft?

AFAIK, 2E was and is a green screen product. It doesn't care if you're
using an actual 5250 terminal or a 5250 emulator.
