Tn3270 X does not support macOS 10.15 Catalina (GA October 2019)Д«ecause Catalina does not support 32-bit programs. Tn3270 X supports Mac OS X 10.1 through macOS 10.14 Mojave using Apple's 32-bit Carbon API. The 'Brown University 3270 emulator' that the OP was referring to isД¬alled 'tn3270 X' (not x3270). Just a point about the names of the 3270 emulators in this discussion. Linus's Law: 'given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow'. No attention given to exception reporting or fuzz testing.

The apparent author has responded actively to Commercial softwareД¬an go to both extremes. Making exits available that obviate the need for local modifications and making parameters available that obviate the need for exits are desired even by those who hate OCO, and do not imply taking away the exits or the source code.ДЇOSS is often driven by pride in craftsmanship.

I would assert it is not the availability of the source code that is driving Utilize the source code of the open source products you are using? Are youД®xamining the source to find problems? Are you making local modifications? *Am I wrong?
