In order to do it the way I think you are asking, you need at least one real
3174 with the Gateway option to pull the data off the token ring and dump
it into the host.  They tell me that a PC running the "Emulation Program 3"
can then pretend it's a 3270.

The other solution is to put up TCP/IP on the PC and run tn3270 over the
token ring and either put the IBM host on the TCP net or use a product
such as the Mitek to gateway.
