IBM 3270 Emulation Capabilities
The IBM 3270 terminal emulation supports Extended Attribute
mode which allows different representation of highlighted fields and
permits host definition of text colours. (Note that you can modify
colours using the
Attribute Settings
dialog, but they cannot be saved
as colours are mapped differently in this mode.) The emulation also
includes typeahead capability so that you can continue to enter data
without waiting for a prompt from the host.
