Bingo. I’ve used half a dozen or more over the years. All of them performed 90% 
of what you need. The other 10%, you can usually work around. The problem for 
vendors is most of you want everything and you want it free.

I don't have any stake in this game but I kind of suspect the best 3270 
emulator in the world is the one I am used to; and conversely, the worst 3270 
emulator in the world is any other that I am being forced to use.

Would you please elaborate on what Hummingbird does / doesn't do that 
make you loath it as a sysprog?  Or more generally, how the different 
capabilities of a terminal (emulator) influence it's use by -- what I'm 
presuming to be -- power users?
