I have a hint I'd like to tell the list about regarding SSL.  This was news
to me, but experienced C programmers probably won't get bit like I did.

I wanted to add SSL support to my tn5250.  I followed all the instructions
and tested OpenSSL with s_client to my iSeries, so I know that OpenSSL and
the iSeries are working.  Then I tried .\config with the SSL options (good
docs Scott!) and make.  Well, make didn't do anything.  It told me there was
no work to do.  Well, duh.  I deleted tn5250.exe and did make again.  It
re-bound tn5250.exe for me but SSL didn't work.

You can see it coming.  Of course it didn't work: the .o files were created
aeons ago without SSL support and re-binding the non-SSL modules is pretty
dumb.  So I deleted all the .o files and did a make.  All were re-created
and tn5250 now works just fine with SSL.

I wanted to put this in the archives in case some other new person should
try adding SSL after the fact.
Many thanks for the fine documentation and the code!
