We have a requirement for an MVS-based software package that can act as
a 3780 RJE emulator for a crude type of file transfer to a remote system.
The software must be automated as fully as possible including originating
(dialing) an outbound call to the remote system across the switched net.

So far the only package I have come across that fits these specs is TRACS
from Sterling Software.  Is anyone aware of any competitors?  Anyone know
of good or bad experiences with TRACS?

Please send any comments or ideas to me directly and I will summarize
for the lists.  Thanks in advance,
