[NFBCS] Terminal emulation

[Tracy Carcione]

I am trying to access an IBM mainframe, and use TSO/ISPF on it.
I'm a bit unclear about SSH, even after reading about it.  My boss does
have PuTTY, and tried getting into the mainframe with it, but he said it
showed the screens in a very strange way, with the whole screen on 1 long
line, if I understood him right.

I'll ask him about Open SSH, but it may be the same as PuTTY.  He knows
more about this than I do.  I'm basically a mainframe programmer.  The
protocols that get me into the mainframe and let me do my job don't mean
much to me.

Steve J has recommended some fonts, but my emulator doesn't have them.
