Here is the string I'm using: > '/usr/local/bin/tn5250' env.DEVNAME='LINUX01' 192.168.0.2 tn5250 is a console application. What you want to use is xt5250 which is basically tn5250 run through an xterm. Try this: xt5250 env.DEVNAME='LINUX01' 192.168.0.2 Then you should be able to make a shortcut in KDE that runs that command. Email me or bug me on the midrangedotcom chat room if you have any trouble.
