Hi Scott I've tried it on a few more boxes at work now and the install itself is very slick; no problems to report. There is, I think, a bug in the Quick Connect for device name where only the first nine characters of the name get used. A ten character name like TN5250TEST ends up as TN5250TES for the session name. It works fine from tn5250rc however, so I assume it's parsing in QC at fault. Incidentaly, is there anyway of defaulting the map to other than 37 (285 for me) used on QC, other than recompiling specifically. The only other thing that's got me stumped is running it through VNC. For some bizarre reason the roll and cursor keys don't do anything at all. They seem fine using them on the Windows PC directly, but nada if accessed through a VNC session. Does anyone else see this effect? The cursor keys work fine in all other Windows apps via VNC that I've tried - including running vncviewer on the windows box back to my Linux box and xt5250 running there (though response is a bit slow this way ;-). Finally, running a precompiled version instead of tweaked CVS one made me take notice the colour issue again. What is the reason why cyan is substituted for blue? I'm guessing it's down to readable colours available when tn5250 is run in a console, but it would be better (IMHO) to use the correct ones where possible. I know some people like to remap them anyway, but as blue and cyan are compiled to the same colour, you can't remap them independantly.
