Man, I wish they had source because I have looked at the PSC/400 stuff and it looks great (0 interactive is quite a compelling selling point). Source would also open other options to them.

No. No source. Hence they either go to HATS or have a third party deliver a GUI solution for them. HATS has been "OK" so far. I've just been stuck on a couple of transformations that require more than just "tweaking the rules".

Thanks for the information though.

Pete, if your client has source, I can web-enable them for less than what
JWalk wants (and it would be zero interactive, and much better looking than
JWalk).  The best thing is that we could get them in a browser pretty much
overnight using the 5250 emulation mode (looks like a green screen in a
browser).  Then they can decide between using the advanced version of
PSC/400 or HATS depending on which suits them best.

Checking the archives it looks like there might be one or two JWalk
customers on the list.

Here is the story:  I have a customer who, about 2 years ago, dropped
support for a product that, as a third party, used JWalk for their GUI.
They upgraded their box to a new i5 and the third party wanted $60,000
to "get them current" so they could get a new license for JWalk.  This
is for a P05 box that barely cost that so, of course, they looked for
alternatives.  We are slowly implementing HATS as an alternative but
"slowly" is the problem.  They really need to either get back to JWalk
running on their old box for a while longer or find a quick alternative
for the interim.
