Where did you get a version of c3270 from for Mac? And how up to date is it relative to Development versions?

The touch bar is an abomination; it is simply too easy to accidently bump into and cause all sorts of havoc. So - I find that I simply turn it off as much as possible. I usually use C3270 for my emulator ("txt" mode in a terminal window) and I've set the terminal window's touch bar to display the function keys... they work just fine (except for accidently bumping into them.) I haven't tried setting them up with the X3270 port I use on the mac... I'm sure it's possible... but, I've just been so put-off by the touch-bar that I want it to just go away. As soon as Apple comes out with a new MacBook without the touch bar, I will be opting for that. - Dave Rivers - -- [email protected] Work: (919) 676-0847 Get your mainframe programming tools at https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.dignus.com&d=DwICaQ&c=jf_iaSHvJObTbx-siA1ZOg&r=BsPGKdq7-Vl8MW2-WOWZjlZ0NwmcFSpQCLphNznBSDQ&m=WN9-3XYebNOL-DDL26zTxHApwGy9sjKpZp-W25v7db0&s=qXGpvs0h4m0fRO3izwKxbvR0yMXxX9u5KYEZEJ0ARsA&e= ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN Unless stated otherwise above: IBM United Kingdom Limited - Registered in England and Wales with number 741598.
