|I got Interlink |because it got such rave reviews, but when I found the vt100 and vt52 |emulations wouldn't work properly with Unix on the Sequent Balance, I was |forced to abandon Interlink as a loss. I am now using the vt100 emulation |"mode ansi" on Flash, and it works fine with "vi" (which I am using to |write this note). WithInterlink, I lost my precious arrow curser movement |and my PF keys with the best setup I could find. (Screwed up results with |the others). If I recal correctly, the Interlink vt100 in ANSI mode resulted |in nothing being shown. | This made Interlink unsatisfactory for use in dialing into a Unix |system. |---------- Hmmm, I use Interlink for dialing into Unix systems quite a bit, but I use the vt52 emulator. The one time I tried the vt100 it didn't work - at all. But the vt52 does everything I need (including use of vi and arrow keys). The machines I log into allow me to specify my terminal at login, so I am satisfied. Flash is so inexpensive I just might try it, though.
