I created an Arch Linux VM today. I installed only xorg, xfce4, lightdm-gtk-greeter, and x3270. I cannot reproduce this behavior.

What happens when launching x3270 from the command line? Is there some useful message on the console?

Did you look at: Command line options: https://x3270.miraheze.org/wiki/-codepage_command-line_option_(pr3287) and Character sets: https://x3270.miraheze.org/wiki/Host_code_page ?? Will look more later, but it feels like someone changed a default somewhere along the line.

I'm experiencing the same issue as prakash2033. Any help would be much appreciated. Cheers.

I have installed x3270 on my arch linux laptop. For some reason, the menu appears in any other language than english. Can you please suggest which font family is required to be installed for this to work correctly.

Sorry for not replying, I didn't get a notification for some reason.

I can start look into it :)

tuftedocelot commented on 2020-06-27 13:04 (UTC)

Yes, that would be great if you could help with version 4. I haven't actively used x3270 for some time, but it has been a low maintenance package to keep updated thus far

GiRa commented on 2020-06-27 08:51 (UTC)

I just wanted to thank you for maintaining this package. Let me know if you need some help with the update to version 4.
