[comp.protocols.ibm] tn3270 gddm graphics over telnet tcp/ip

JS05STAF@MIAMIU.BITNET (Joe Simpson) (12/08/88)

GDDM graphics over tcp/ip protocol TELNET is generally referred to as
tn3270.  There is a tn3270 telnet for Apple Macintosh that displays
graphics (in color if your Mac supports it).  At present I know of no
IBM based telnet that does.

Technically the issue is "does your tn3270 telnet support the IBM
extended data stream?".

IBM has a new version of their product that will support VT100, but will
not support extended data stream.

As near as I can tell, they are waiting for a public domain version to
appear.  Peter DeCamilo at I believe Brown did the Mac work.  It is
distributed at the Illinois supercomputer site.
