Re: Driving TN5250 non-interactively

It seems like what you want to know are details about the 5250 data stream.

5250 is a data stream that contains not only plain text data, but attributes
for the data displayed on the screen (like foreground color, background
color, underlining and bold), along with keyboard command attention (CA) and
command function (CF) keys.

I think the best source of that complete information is specified in a set
of books by IBM, like "SNA Formats", and others related to the SNA data
streams used in 5250-like terminals.

There is an on-line source of information where you will probably find it.

I'd suggest you search the IBM search engine at this URL.  You will have to
look for further to find what you need.  Try to find out one version that
deals with iSeries under the same bookmanager library reader.

Good luck!
