It has IBM3151 emulation built in. Cost is about $25. per user and is (in my opinion) the best terminal emulator for Microsoft WinBlows out there.

Currently, we use ProComm for Win95 and 2k with a VT100 emulation in conjunction with a vendor provided keyboard and translation file that they won't part with. I've also tested TinyTerm and it utilizes when in IBM3151 emulation mode, it provides the same translations as ProComm and it's combined translation file. After speaking with a few of the field techs, I was told that anything that can provide an IBM3151 terminal emulation will work properly. On my aix system, under /src/misc/terminfo there is an entry named ibm3151.ti. Under my FreeBSD 4.8 system, within "/usr/compat/linux/usr/share/terminfo" I have a terminal file for the ibm3151 and within /usr/compat/linux/etc/termcap there is an entry for ibm3151 but I'm uncertain how to utilize that within the FreeBSD environment. I've tried importing the ibm3151 termcap entry into my FBSD termcap and rehashing the termcap database but it garbles once I get into the ibm environment. I'm wondering if I may actually need to get some sort of terminal emulator for BSD instead of a straight telnet session.
