Thank you for your comment. This is the old argument against free,
open-source software.

It's spurious if only for the reason that there is little chance
anyone would ever write an open-source completely featureful tool like
the typical commercial 5250 emulator.

I use tn5250 and love it, but IBM PComm is still much more powerful.
