Can anyone please be able to post screenshots of Mainframe OSs like
z/OS, z/VM running Linux and so on?
Do those really look like the typical green screen or they look like a
GUI?
A typical mainframe screen isn't GUI, but at the same time is far from being
the 'green screen' of yester-year. If you click the web link below you'll
see many examples of mainframe screens. You'll also see that certain
graphical characters (e.g. arrows) can be displayed. What you won't be able
to tell from the screen shots is that all commands, functions, selections,
scrolling (etc.) can be performed using a mouse. The mainframe is a lot
easier to use than many people think!
Hope this helps,
