Re: hawkeye

Hi,

Frank Hildebrant put together a 5250 emulator plugin (TN5250J) that works within WDSC/RDi and within it you can use a PDM option to open source in the LPEX editor. This isn't exactly what the OP was looking for, but it covers some of the bases, I think.

I must admit I have not used the plugin for a year, but it worked reasonably well and was well supported by Frank back then.


Best regards,
Paul

Yep, Eric

I realized that the Arcad 5250 wouldn't help this situation - but kept 
on typing anyhow.
