There was some interest in this from all corners of the globe...

With help from a few people from the tn3270 list
(tn3270 at terminus.umd.edu)
I have it working.
The following was done:
../telnet/Source/tn3270.c
put #if ((!defined(mips))) around the putchar routine..
#if ((!define(NOT43)) ...
(thanks skapur at ccmail.sunysb.edu)

ctlr/api.h
added '|| (MIPSEL)' to the byte order check
(line 333)
[Probably should add ' || (MIPSEB) ' to the next check]

edited makefile to reflect a different install scheme and to put
../etc/map3270 in /etc
changed the 'thisdepend' rule so it worked and put 'mkdep' in this directory.
 (thanks jch at sonne.tn.cornell.edu) 

Used ../telnet/Makefile_ultrix instead of ../telnet/Makefile

I don't have the map file working so the enter key is read correctly -
use ^Z - 

Interestingly this works fine on a vax rlogged into from the Pmax
(termcap maybe?)


Will diff a std directory so you can use patch to do all the work and
post it soon. - 

Meanwhile on bimbo.tn.cornell.edu (128.84.253.208) for anon ftp in pub

Just unpacking, editing tn3270/makefile to reflect your own
installation preferences and typing 'make' or 'make install'
should build a working tn3270 on a Pmax. Read the README.CORNELL.LPS

Built mine under Ultrix3.1-UWS2.1...
