Description Paul Seniura 2004-10-05 23:10:27 UTC 
This port is the latest version of IBM 3270 terminal emulators 
as an open source project that I can find.  The net/tn3270 port
is dead-dead-dead and will take too much effort to fix on
5.x-6.x-Current.  This new port is part of a group and has been
separated such that the user can pick & choose what he wants. 
This particular port is for full-screen text-mode aka console
sessions with support for curses, OpenSSL, scripting, and
SNA-printer emulation with IBM mainframes.

I am unable to test most of the extra functionality.  Also I am
continuing to investigate some text-mode anomalies that may be
highly dependent on the graphics/video card in use.  But we do
need a working replacement for net/tn3270, and this is 'it'.

Before accepting this new port:

Firstly, I need someone with legal eyes to look over this project's
licensing details at http://x3270.bgp.nu/license.html , please. 
(I posted this request on -ports@ a few weeks ago to no avail.)

If agreeable, the next thing to do is ditch the port net/tn3270
entirely.  I'm not sure how to do that myself (and not being able
to do CVS thru our political firewall here at work).

Thirdly, if agreeable, simply add this new port net/c3270 to the
collection, please.  Yes it comprises only three little files.  ;)

Fourthly, people with access to mainframes: Test Test Test Please!  :)

Comment 1 Paul Seniura 2004-10-06 22:02:28 UTC 
I need to submit a revamped Makefile. 
Saw the dollar-sign '$' glitch on the OPTIONS dialog
for the FT aka IND$FILE option. 
Also need to investigate where the Unicode support
needs to come from -- looks like it probably will
need to depend on the IBM port devel/icu2 . 
We don't need Unicode here, but I would like to have
this emulator support it for others around the world. 
It may take a day or so.

  --  thx, Paul Seniura.
Comment 2 Paul Seniura 2004-10-09 00:22:55 UTC 
Okay this is a good set. 
It will use the IBM devel/icu2-2.8 port
for DBCS support, but it does have a known
problem with certain tags. 
I've been in contact with the project
leader to help figure out the problem. 
We will patch the tables to comment-out
their subchar1 tags for now.

Let's go with this for now, please.
