If you don't mind a .Net approach, have you looked at ASNA Monarch and ASNA Wings ?

Subject: [WEB400] Turning green-screen apps into web apps
We are starting to look more seriously at making some of our green-screen
apps into intranet apps. The first program would from our payroll software
that is vendor created and supported. Since we don't control the source (in
this case), we cannot take an approach like RPGUI and we would also like to
allow for green-screen usage AND web usage at the same time. I have been
looking at software like Presto from BCD and NewLook from Look Software that
essentially does screen-scraping. I have not tried either one yet.
As I have said on here before, our knowledge base here is RPG and C# and we
would like to avoid PHP if possible so we don't spread out our knowledge
base too thin. We also have a solid base of HTML, CSS, and
jQuery/JavaScript.
1. Do you use this type of software and how do you like it?
2. Which product do you use/like/wish you used instead?
3. How easily customizable is it and do you do any?
4. Could I have an ASP.NET application work with the framework to create a
custom application to interface with a green-screen application?
Also, has anyone done a comparison of each of the options head-to-head to
see where the pluses and minuses are?
I'm sure I'll have more questions, but this is a start. I am just trying to
wrap my head around this better to put together a good proposal.
