Description

This is an implementation of a 5250 emulator. The 5250 is most commonly used for connections to IBM's AS/400. While one can connect to an AS/400 with a VT100 emulator, it's not ideal. The problem is that the 5250 is a screen at a time terminal, whereas the VT100 is a character at a time device. The emulator uses the binary mode of telnet to transfer the 5250 data stream.
