[comp.unix.questions] WYSE WY60 emulator wanted

d0mund01@ulkyvx.bitnet (05/23/91)

I'm installing a '386 UNIX system for a client who has a number of PCs
emulating proprietary terminals.  I'd like to use the same PCs as terminal
emulators on the new system.

Does anyone know of a good package that will emulate the WY60 terminal?

Are there other terminals I should consider emulating if I want to preserve
the ability to run VP/ix on these terminals?

The emulation software should be simple and need not have any fancy features
beyond good emulation.  Such features would probably only confuse many of the
system's users.

What this guy need, is the terminalemulator ICE.TEN.PLUS from the
JamesRiverGroup.

ICE.TEN.PLUS works well with VP/IX (and SCO MS WORD), because it has the
pscan feature.

The product is really simple and very cheap, because you will bay a general
lizenz for one unix host, and not for every pc connected to the host.

PEM, my company is one of the distributers.
