Hi,

>From man pages:
x3270if - command interface to x3270, c3270 and s3270
pr3287 - IBM host printing tool

x3270 and c3270 depends of x3270if, then use a third package seems a
good solution to me, or maybe build a single package with all?
What is the way to be in accordance with the standard of the
port tree?

Regards,
Correa
