protocol and allows 3270 emulators to communicate with host systems.

version 2.1a or later and can be installed with the additional information

Internet. The downloadable file is named WFWDLC.EXE. NOTE: The file WFWDLC.EXE
is intended for use with Windows For Workgroups version 3.11 only and is not
