I have installed WC3270, This emulator executes the Insert key as expected. If I use NULLS in RPF, I can insert characters in the line if the line contains trailing "blanks". I change in RPF the blanks after the last non-blank character into NULLS (x'00') With the NONULLS command I cannot insert characters unless I delete some characters with the DEL key. This works as designed.
However, If I use Tom Brennan's Vista TN3270, you can always Insert characters if there are blanks after the last non-blank character. It does not matter if the editor is in NULLS mode or not. Even in ISPF with NULLS OFF I can insert characters.
I realize that this is not standard, but I do appreciate this "feature".
As would I, but sadly it seems as though none of these applications are available for Linux.? The only alternative really seems to be x3270, which is indeed quite limited, with the most archane of UI's. I should really fork it and implement these features.
