To some extent, I agree with you.   In fact, I have every intention of
making TN5250 easier to setup.

However, the barrier to that isn't that I don't know what to make my
dialogs look like, the barrier is a lack of time to work on it.   Last
year (2002) was a record year for my company.   We've been in business
for almost 50 years, and 2002 was by far our biggest year.

The consequence of that is that I have had little time to work on TN5250
since last summer.  Our company is using it's recent profits to improve
it's infrastructure, which takes a lot of time and effort from the IT
department.

On top of that, I get a lot of e-mail (somewhere near 700 messages per
day) and I'm involved in 5 open-source projects, of which TN5250 is only
one.  My time is spread very thin.

If you'd like to see more ease-of-use features added to TN5250, please
jump in and help implement them.   That will benefit everyone!
