It only works from the config file (not from the command-line, since that looked a bit more complicated to do) so to use it you'll make a tn5250rc file similar to: test { host = as400 env.DEVNAME=$loginname$01 font_80=Terminal } and then run: tn5250 test Keep in mind, of course, that OS/400 device names cannot exceed 10 chars in length.
