Version 3 of OS/400

Updated 2003-06-11 18:36:20

Operating system of IBM AS/400 mainframes (called "minicomputers", not "mainframes", by some). Transaction-oriented (that is, designed for lots of I/O but unchallenging computation; RPG is a "native language"); nothing to do with AIX.

Tcl/Tk has been ported there: [L1 ]

  • Tcl 7.6, Tk 4.2
  • Requires OS/400 V4R4 or later
  • The distribution includes the XLIB portion of X Window/400, the Tcl command interpreter, and the Tk (wish) console OS/400 V4R5 is required DB2 access.
  • VTCL - a GUI builder written completely in Tcl/Tk by Stewart Allen, is included free of charge.
  • REXEC and RSH (Remote Shell) - two remote execution command daemons for starting AS/400 applications and commands from remote workstations.
  • 15-day free trial download, after that it costs about USD 750.
