x3270/s3270 Scripting [IBM Mainframes]

Has someone tried to develop a script based on the x3270?

I'm reading the man, but I can't figure how to work it out. I need some sample script to start.

:/

Ok, I'm starting to understand how it works. I can perform some basic commands, like Connect, MoveCursor, String and Ascii. Maybe I'm in the right way...

I need a script to connect on one of my LPARs and prove to my manager (doh) that the environment is on-line and working. I know that there are many other elegant ways to do that, but she asked specifically for this.

When I get something more usable, I'll show to you guys.
