I am still on this list, but until this week couldn't get my head above 
water to actually read any list email.

Enhanced mode works well in x5250.  I use it as my only emulator and I 
have customers who use it daily in production.  x5250 is purposely 
designed to be minimal so it doesn't have some of the bells and whistles 
that something like PC5250 or tn5250j have.  But because it is minimal it 
works very well over remote X11 connections and on low power hardware.

I recently had to move some servers around and my site where I host x5250 
is not active.  I'll rectify this shortly and post here.

if you want to understand why that is, there are many good books on
the design of operating systems. please pass them along to redmond
when you're done reading them :)
