Help, Need to find or download TN3270 for Linux
 

I tried finding this on Google but no luck. I am tring to find the TN3270 Emulator (with 5250) for Linux.

Is there a link where I could download it? And is there any special extra things that I have to with that file after it's downloaded?

Most of these Terminal Emulators is indeed meant for Windows platforms. But for Linux?

This is free for personal use

Installation depends on linux distribution, read the documentation first

arno -

It's not free. It's shareware. 30 days eval.

unixfreak -- maybe so, but what difference does that make? Your original post merely asked for suggestions about emulators, and both Tinkster and arno answered your question with multiple valid suggestions. If "free" was a requirement, you should have specified that fact up front rather than to complain publicly about someone who was simply trying to help you. That just seems to be pretty rude, particularly when you consider that everyone here is simply trying to voluntarily assist other Linux users on their spare time. (arno - thanks for taking the time to reply.) To return to the original question, did you take the time to actually check out Tink's recommendations? His reply will lead you to an additional half dozen emulators.

Overall, I think it's useful to point out that LQ is a community of volunteers, not a dedicated research team that is tasked with answering each and every question. Please keep this fact in mind. Thanks -- J.W.
