[comp.graphics] wanted: terminal emulation package with color graphics

jana@unssun.nevada.edu (jana dunn) (08/03/90)

We would like to be able to view CGM files in color on
a PC compatible that's acting as a terminal.  

We have a CGM interpreter with drivers for a number of popular
terminals, and we can probably get more drivers if necessary.
However, we don't have anything in the way of a terminal
emulation package except kermit, and its tek4010 emulation
won't do the job.

What emulation packages are available?  Our preference
would be a public domain (or very inexpensive) package that 
emulates a popular graphics terminal or two, but we're 
willing to consider almost anything.

Alternatively, is there another way to view those files?
We'd like to avoid downloading the files as they're large
and we don't have many microcomputers with ethernet connections.

We're on the Internet, so I can pick stuff up from anonymous 
ftp sites.

Please respond by email.  I will summarize if it seems
appropriate.
