Sessman 3270
A simple session manager for 3270 systems extending go3270
Written by a human with AI assistance as an attempt to see what hybrid development could consist of and produce. There is a default user in the example config with the same username as password.
Features
- Persistent 3270 sessions originating from the sessman host
- Ability to reconnect to persistent session from another 3270
- PA3 hotkey to background the current session and return to the menu
- Multi user by design, public or password based authentication
- Line Commands to (H)old, (R)esume, (K)ill or start a (B)ackgrounded session
- Admin commands to kill sessions or shut down server remotely
- Cross platform, runs anywhere Go is supported
Deployment
This project uses native Go tools, to generate a build run
