II70038@MAINE.BITNET (Jonathan Kimball) (10/21/89)
I am now using VLT V3.649. Am I up to date on this terminal emulation program, or is there a newer version that I could get? (I don't know how old this one is.) If there is a better version where (on BITNET) can I get it? Thanks, Jonathan Kimball II70038 at MAINE.BITNET

The author of VLT, Willy Langeveld, is a moderator on BIX so the latest versions of VLT seem to appear there first. Latest version has review buffers and ANSI color support. Also available is "vlt4j226.zoo" which is a "junior" version for those who don't need Tektronix graphics emulation. Sorry but I am unable to help you get the file on Bitnet. (Does anybody know what VLT stands for? "V"illy Langeveld's Terminal perhaps?) _______________________________________________________________________________ John Ellson // ellson@ontap.stsusa.com // 602-395-5281 Siemens Transmission Systems, Inc., 8620 North 22nd Avenue, Phoenix AZ 85021

Usenet: uunet!cbmvax!valentin > Bitnet: cbmvax!valentin@uunet.uu.net > - Ancient Inca Proverb Claimer: these aren't Commodore thoughts -- Thanks Valentin for the hints about how to send mail to Bitnet addresses. Actually, the main reason that I was unable to send the file to this user was because I don't have the file on my work machine; only on my Amiga at home and I don't have uucp on it yet. Also I really can't afford the time to get into the software distribution business, particularly when this software is publically available elsewhere. I am sorry if that sounds mean but I have learned that I can easily spend whole evenings zooing/uuencoding/zmodeming files for single users. If there are many people on UseNet/BitNet that are having trouble getting software like this then perhaps Commodore would like to provide an archiving and distribution service for Amiga software? Something like Digital Equipment does with DECUS? _______________________________________________________________________________ John Ellson // ellson@ontap.stsusa.com // 602-395-5281 Siemens Transmission Systems, Inc., 8620 North 22nd Avenue, Phoenix AZ 85021
