[comp.os.vms] 3270 emulator software sought

GWD21T@DGOGWD01.BITNET ("W.J.Moeller") (09/26/87)

Is there such a thing as a public domain 3270 emulation software?
We are currently interested in such a thing, just in order to find
out what a 3270 is supposed to do (new to the I*M world).

Since we'll eventually have a gateway, I would also welcome any comments
about DEC's product.

Take a look at Greg Minshall's tn3270 from UC-Berkeley. It's
available via anonymous ftp to host arpa.berkeley.edu.
Retrieve, in binary mode, either: pub/tn3270.tar or
                                  pub/tm3270.tar.Z
Warning these are large files - 300kb of data.
You can also send $100 and get a diskette or tape.
It's not public domain (it's copyright UCB) but it is free (if you ftp).
