   Is there any reason why sending a 3270 data stream   
   including Set Buffer Address etc to a 3270 terminal   
   is any different from sending an HTML data stream   
   including  and 
to a theoretical HTML       terminal?              Are you saying that EBCDIC ANSI is illegitimate too?       ie sending x'27' [ 2 J etc in EBCDIC.              What's the technical definition of a "terminal"?              Thanks.
