Third Parties
Many manufacturers, such as Hewlett Packard and Memorex, created 3270 compatible terminals, or adapted ASCII terminals such as the HP 2640 series to have a similar block-mode capability that would transmit a screen at a time, with some form validation capability. Modern applications are sometimes built upon legacy 3270 applications, using software utilities to capture (screen scraping) screens and transfer the data to web pages or GUI interfaces.

Famous quotes containing the word parties:
“Mixed dinner parties of ladies and gentlemen ... are very rare, which is a great defect in the society; not only as depriving them of the most social and hospitable manner of meeting, but as leading to frequent dinner parties of gentlemen without ladies, which certainly does not conduce to refinement.”
—Frances Trollope (1780–1863)
“I care nothing for all the political parties in the world except as they stand for justice.”
—Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)
