I've recently started pushing my company into installing VP/ix under Xenix for customers who need to run a DOS application occasionally (we normally use Xenix for Realworld Accounting systems). VP/ix seems to be an exceptional product, but only from terminals capable of supporting scancodes. The question here is, is there an emulation package available for PC's that can generate scancodes (I mean completely here - I need to be able to run WordPerfect CORRECTLY). On a related tack - I've recently installed an Emulex (Persyst) 8 port serial board in my Wang PC-381 (Xenix 2.3.1, 80386, 4meg, 60 meg hd). The sucker seems to be running fine, EXCEPT (here's the kicker), VP/ix cannot switch into the mode it needs - ala, it's having problems supporting a scancode terminal (in this case, an AT&T 605 and an IBM 3151). Any suggestions? /----------------+ "The shortest distance +----------------------\ | Dave Shevett | between two puns is a | Labyrinth II BBS | | W.
