Ron,

I am starting COBOL programming in two weeks.  This will mean that I will be
using 3270 emulation to access the mainframe.  Can I have a copy of these
scripts as well?

Eric, 

I also have scripts that I use on a daily basis for 3270 emulation.  These
have not been compiled for years now and last time I did try they failed.  I
can also send you the JSB file if you like.  One thing I did add was a
toggle to turn off the speaking of line numbers while in ISPF edit. 

 


In the Journey, 
 
Ron

Eric,

Haven't seen some of the replies to this (have been trying to clean up my
folder from all the mess recently). I might suggest taking a look at your
terminal display settings. Often, this can help with Jaws or window-Eyes.
Playing with the shape and blinking state of the cursor can make a big
difference. Usually setting the display to a blinking cursor with an i-beam
shape (if that is an option) is helpful in allowing Jaws to correctly track
the cursor movements. I used to have some Jaws scripts for doing such things
as reading hex data properly and so on as well but haven't used them in
several years. If you like, I can try to find my scripts and send them to
you. My emulator was a different vendor; so, you would have to rename the
scripts but hopefully, they would work OK.

Hello listers,

I am currently in training to become a mainframe programmer, and I am having
issues using the emulator effectively with Jaws.  The company I work for
uses Rumba.  Are there any scripts or methods that would make it easier to
use with Jaws?

Thanks in advance.

Eric
