NEED: Ada IO interface for 3278 terminals from IBM3090/MVS
We have a need to provide a user interface with two (2) CONCURRENTLY
active windows (one for user input, one for system output). The
developers were planning to use, "ANSI_TERM" in the UNIX-based
environment (AIX/RS-6000). Now, a change in requirements may necessitate
a similar capability on the 3090 mainframe, under MVS, driving 'dumb'
3278 terminals. A package that simply allows cursor control on the 3278
may work. They developers involved say that ISPF, and other tools
available to them, do not allow two active panels. I am not sure how
effectively this concurrency can be achieved/faked in a traditionally
batch environment, but...
Please let me know if anyone has developed such a tool, or knows of one.
Thanx,
Greg
