What is tn3270?
Tn3270 is a terminal emulation program for connecting to computers whichuse IBM 3270 terminals.Major features of the emulation include color, extended highlighting,support for different screen and font sizes, and SSL support. Some moreobscure features include support for the APL character set, and support forfile transfer and remote printing when tn3270 is used with an IBM VM/CMS host.The Classic version of tn3270 also supports 3179 graphics emulation.
There is no license fee for either commercial or non-commercial use of thetn3270 application.The tn3270 source code is freely-licensed for non-commercial use, but must belicensed for commercial use.
What is required to use tn3270?
To use tn3270, the host computer must provide a telnet server which supportsthe extensions for 3270 terminals. On your Macintosh, you must be able toconnect to the host server using TCP/IP.
Although primarily a 3270 emulation program, tn3270 also supports ordinaryline mode telnet connections. This support allows tn3270 to operate with hostswhich establish a line mode connection before entering 3270 mode, as well as withline mode only hosts. When operating in line mode, tn3270 emulates a DECVT52 terminal.
Notes:
- All versions of tn3270 X support the original 3270 extensions to telnet. The newer tn3270eprotocol is supported as an experimental addition to version 3.4.0.
- Tn3270 may be used with hosts which support IBM 5250 terminals. However,not all 5250 functions will be available.
Which Macintosh operating systems are supported?
The latest version of tn3270 X, 3.4.0, is supported on Mac OS X 10.3.9 Panther through macOS 10.14 Mojave.Older versions of tn3270 X are available for use with OS X 10.1.5 and later, as listed under the downloads.The Classic version of tn3270, 2.5b5, is compatible with classic Mac OS versions.
Will tn3270 X support macOS 10.15 Catalina?
macOS 10.15 Catalina is the first version of macOS which does not support the use of 32-bit applications.Many older applications, including tn3270 X, are 32-bit applications, and must be updated to the 64-bit model for Catalina.Unfortunately, this won't be possible for tn3270 X. Tn3270 X was developed using Apple's Carbon framework, which wasoriginally provided for porting classic Mac applications to OS X. When 64-bit support was being introduced into OS X, Apple madea decision to not support 64-bit Carbon applications. As a result, it's not feasible to update tn3270 X to 64 bits.The only solution would be a rewrite of the application, and there are no currentplans for a rewrite.Users of tn3270 X are encouraged to use the macintosh-tn3270mailing list to discuss alternatives to tn3270 X for Catalina.If you are a developer who would be interested in participating in an open-source project to implement a replacementfor tn3270 X, please contact Peter DiCamillo.
