WrongTerminalName resource

new in 4.3

x3270 has long supported a broad range of 3270 models, including two fictitious ones: the 3279 model 4 and 3279 model 5. Part of the TN3270 protocol is reporting the terminal type to the host; previous versions reported these as IBM-3279-4-E and IBM-3279-5-E respectively. Some hosts were confused by these names and would refuse to negotiate 3270 mode if they were used.

When this resource is set to false (the default), these fictitious models are reported as IBM-3278-4-E and IBM-3278-5-E, which are generally understood by hosts. Though these represent monochrome terminals, the color capabilities of a 3279 terminal are discovered by the host later through the Query structured field.

When this resource is set to true, the previous names of 3279-4-E and 3279-5-E are reported to the host.
