Brennan's Vista. At $30 a seat for a perpetual license, you can't get a
better TN3270 emulator. Not only is it cheap, it's way better than
PCOMM, Extra, RUMBA, etc. Check it out at www.tombrennansoftware.com.
I also recommand Vista tn3270 to everyone. But "better than ****" is not
right. It always depend on the needed features.
For example, if you need EHLLAPI/WinHLLAPI, then you can't use Vista
because it doesn't support this stuff. But I guess for the $40.000 Tom
Brennan would implelent this ;->
Advantages of Vista (imho)
o VERY VERY good readable Font! IMHO the greatest 3270 Font!
o Vista is small- it fires up quickly and you get quickly conncted
o powerful macro language
o Tom Brennan gives great support (he implemented extensions to the
macro language for me - try this with IBM or other competitors)
o It simply works!
Disadvantages:
o No EHLLAPI / WinHLLAPI
o Dialogs are really old-fashioned (yes I know, who cares, but for the
first time user they really look, ehem, strange).
I personally would never use another emulator if I had the choice.
bye,
Michael
