I would like to thank everybody who responded to my question regarding
tn3270 on the Alpha. I found that "tn3270" would not compile, so I was
pointed to 3270_4.1 ty Richard Jackson. Richard sent me some wonderful,
pretty painless instructions:
ftp from dxcsftp.cern.ch:/pub/3270/3270v4.1.beta.tar.Z
1. cd /sys1/src/3270_4.1
2. cp Makefile.alpha Makefile
3. modify Makefile
4. make >& make.log
NOTE: My system returned the error "make.log: bad number" at this point.
(Step 4) I had to replace this line with make > make.log 2>&1
and it worked fine.
5. make install >& make.install
NOTE: Again, my system didn't like this command. It was replaced with
make install 2>&1 make.install and it worked fine.
6. cd /usr/local/bin
7. strip mset 3270
8. cd /usr/local/man/man1
NOTE: after step 8 the files tn3270.map and tn3270.1 were not in
/usr/local/man/man1. I had to find them and put them there before continuing.
One of the readme
files has more information on tn3270.map. It has to be in the right
place in order for the keyboard to map properly.
9. ln -s 3270.1 tn3270.1
10. cd /usr/local/bin
11. ln -s 3270 tn3270
It works just fine!!! Thanks again to Richard Jackson for the wonderfule
instructions.
