James,

Thus if the host could send the attributes "blue, column
separators, blink, underline, reverse image" x5250 could display it.


Using WEA orders (Write Extended Attribute) in the 5250 data stream, I
think it probably could.  But I don't recall all the details on WEA,
and I can't find a copy of the 5494 Functions Reference manual online
anywhere in a quick search.  I do remember you can set the color of
each individual display byte, even within a field, without consuming
display positions.  I don't remember if attributes like blink or
underline were part of WEA, but I suspect they were.
