Was wondering if anyone has good examples/reference material on interfacing to mainframe systems. Currently we use a Telnet 3270 emulator, and a typical interaction with it would be:
(1) Connect to the mainframe.
(2) Enter username and password.
(3) Select a view or do a search for records.
How does one even begin to write say a shell script to do the above steps using standard unix telnet? Any examples?
